malnpudl and
innerslytherin were doing this. I just had to jump in.
(I hadn't realized it was based on book sales, but I still stand by my list at the end of the books I wish were on this list.)
( Read more... )
Here are some books that I'd love to see on the list rather than all the duplicate authors.
Either In War Times or The Bones of Time by Kathleen Ann Goonan
Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin
Spirits in the Wire by Charles de Lint
A Wrinkle in Time (or better yet, A Swiftly Tilting Planet) by Madeleine L'Engle
Cyteen by C.J. Cherryh (thank you,
innerslytherin for reminding me of Cherryh.)
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
Doctor Jeckyll and Mister Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson
Dracula by Bram Stoker
Kindred by Octavia Butler
Any of the Dorsai! novels by Gordon R. Dickson, though I lean heavily toward The Tactics of Mistake
The Harry Potter books should be on here too, in my opinion.
If we throw in short stories, I'd like to see M.R. James, H.P. Lovecraft, and Edgar Allen Poe added.
