Best Scifi/Fantasy list

[deralte]

Stolen from ursule because I can't resist being snarky about the good ole classics.
Stuff I've read in bold.

Science fiction:

Dune, Frank Herbert.- Read it first when I was ten. It made a lot more sense rereading it at seventeen.
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, Robert A. Heinlein- I know I've read it, though I don't remember it being that interesting.
The Left Hand of Darkness, Ursula K. Le Guin. - This has been sitting on my shelf waiting to be read for a little over a year now. I've yet to make it past the first page.
The Foundation Trilogy, Isaac Asimov. - I made the mistake of reading it in chronological order, instead of writing order. The Mule ruled! Not sure how much I would enjoy it at this age and I much prefer Asimov's novella, 'A Pebble in the Sky' to anything else.
Stranger in a Strange Land, Robert A. Heinlein. - I find it disturbing that this novel had such an effect on people when it was written. The second half of the novel is quite boring.
The Stars My Destination, Alfred Bester - I'm tempted to read it, if only because of the Babylon 5 references:)
A Canticle for Leibowitz, Walter M. Miller Jr
Childhood's End, Arthur C. Clarke. - Hate his writing with a passion. Boring and useless.
Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card. - Brilliant. But, boy did some of the sequels get tedious.
Hyperion, Dan Simmons
Gateway, Frederik Pohl - I have read this book. I remember it as being classic scifi and little else. In fact, I'm sure I've read all his novels. They all blend together after awhile, good science of the time...
The Forever War, Joe Haldeman
More Than Human, Theodore Sturgeon
Lord of Light, Roger Zelazny - All his writing looks the same, I've never been able to chose one of his books to waste my time on...
Neuromancer, William Gibson - Is this one about a cyberpunk world conspiracy thing? If so, I've read it, if not, oh well...
Startide Rising, David Brin. - If this is another hardcore scifi novel then I've read it...
The Time Machine, H.G. Wells - I used to reread my favourite parts of this over and over, and damn were the Morlocks scary.
The Man in the High Castle, Philip K. Dick
The Dispossessed, Ursula K. Le Guin
Stand on Zanzibar, John Brunner
Nineteen Eighty-Four, George Orwell - I really have to get around to reading this, though failed utopia novels are a pet peeve of mine.
The Demolished Man, Alfred Bester - Hi, Al!
The Martian Chronicles, Ray Bradbury. - Never made it past the first few chapters, and was laughing too hard at the cover art. (I had one of his old sets...)
Starship Troopers, Robert A. Heinlein. - How to disguise political propaganda as a book. Check.
Downbelow Station, C.J. Cherryh.
Ringworld, Larry Niven. I still love the first chapter of this book, and the Kzin, but I remember little else.
2001: A Space Odyssey, Arthur C. Clarke. I've only made it through one of his books (Imperial Earth) and was never impressed. Refuse to read any more, and if the movie is any indication, it was a good choice.
The War of the Worlds, H.G. Wells
Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury.
The Mote in God's Eye, Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle
Way Station, Clifford D. Simak - I may have read this...
Star Maker, Olaf Stapledon
Dying Inside, Robert Silverberg - Have read some of his other books, but damn was it a long time ago.
The City and the Stars, Arthur C. Clarke
Dhalgren, Samuel R. Delany
Rendezvous with Rama, Arthur C. Clarke
Mission of Gravity, Hal Clement
City, Clifford D. Simak
Cyteen, C.J. Cherryh.
Flowers for Algernon, Daniel Keyes. Wonderful story. It makes me cry every time I reread it.
Double Star, Robert A. Heinlein
Earth Abides, George R. Stewart
The Door Into Summer, Robert A. Heinlein
Last and First Men, Olaf Stapledon
Ubik, Philip K. Dick
Norstrilia, Cordwainer Smith
The Witches of Karres, James H. Schmitz
Frankenstein, Mary Shelley
Have Space Suit Will Travel, Robert A. Heinlein
Time Enough for Love, Robert A. Heinlein - My favourite Heinlein novel, if only for the nice quotes in between chapters and the interesting sexual attitudes *L*
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, Philip K. Dick. The movie made more of an impact on me, though the ending of the book is great.
The Gods Themselves, Isaac Asimov - The only Asimov novel/story I've never read interestingly enough.
"Riverworld" series, Philip Jose Farmer - I slogged through 2 1/2 of these before giving up in agony. The idea was cool, but the writing was tedious and the moralizations annoying.

Fantasy novels:

The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien - Set my first reading record on these things - four days at the age of nine. Reread regularly.
The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien - My copy of this is so dogeared and falling apart you can't even read it without sneezing at the dust it emits upon turning pages (as they crumble in your hands). My brother had to buy a new one just so he could read it:)
The Book of the New Sun, Gene Wolfe
"Earthsea" series, Ursula K. Le Guin - Eh, I mean too...
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll. - I read this when I was five. The Walrus and the Carpenter really stuck in my mind. I should probably reread it...
"Gormenghast" series, Mervyn Peake - I really, really want to read this series. Finding the time though...
The Once and Future King, T.H. White. - Along with the rest of the series. It's sad to think how close he came to redemning Mordred. This one's probably the best of the series though.
Little, Big, John Crowley
Nine Princes in Amber, Roger Zelazny
"The First Chronicles of Thomas Covenant", Stephen R. Donaldson - I have yet to make it past the first chapter of this series. The writing is fine, but something about the characters bugs me.
Dragonflight, Anne McCaffrey - And the entire series, and her Pegasus in Flight series... This little trilogy is probably her best though.
"The Belgariad", David Eddings. - Ah yes, your quintissential fantasy trilogy cliche. Perhaps if I had never read any fantasy novels before this one I would have enjoyed it more.
The Chronicles of Narnia, C.S. Lewis - Really need to reread, though the books are starting to fall apart these days.
The Anubis Gates, Tim Powers.
"The Dying Earth" series, Jack Vance
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum.
Dracula, Bram Stoker - Really haven't quite finished it yet, but I'll count it anyway. Nice use of letters and diaries.
The Last Unicorn, Peter S. Beagle - I suspect I should for research purposes.
The Mists of Avalon, Marion Zimmer Bradley - It got rather tedious after awhile. I have never seen a woman mess up her life more...
The Stand, Stephen King - The only thing of his I've ever read in The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger. I enjoyed it, but I never got around to the second book of the trilogy.
Watership Down, Richard Adams - Watership Down. You've read the book. You've seen the movie. Now eat the stew.
The Riddle-Master of Hed, Patricia A. McKillip I read this trilogy, then immediately read it over again I enjoyed it so much. It wasn't quite as much fun when I reread it agian years later, but her writing really is mesmerizing and I love the ideas.
The Worm Ouroboros, E.R. Eddison.
Glory Road, Robert A. Heinlein - His early stuff is even worse than his later stuff.
Mythago Wood, Robert Holdstock. - Never even heard of it...
"Alvin Maker" series, Orson Scott Card. It never looked as good as Ender's series...
A Wrinkle in Time, Madeleine L'Engle - I liked the sequel to this more (though what was up with that book about the twins?). Not sure how much I would enjoy it if I reread it now. The whole confrontation scene has stuck in my mind for years though.
Witch World, Andre Norton
"The Fionavar Tapestry", Guy Gavriel Kay. Another mesmerizing writer. I wasn't quite satisfied with how the trilogy ended but it was a lot of fun to get there:)
Deryni Rising, Katherine Kurtz - Doesn't she write Star Trek novels?
"Discworld" series, Terry Pratchett. - Ah, Discworld? How much do I love thee? I'm a City Watch fan myself.
"Elric" series, Michael Moorcock
Replay, Ken Grimwood - Never even heard of it...
Something Wicked This Way Comes, Ray Bradbury - I think I should, if only for the title...
"Fafhrd & Gray Mouser" series, Fritz Leiber
The Incomplete Enchanter, Fletcher Pratt & L. Sprague de Camp

I can't believe The Weapon Makers of Ishtar didn't make it on here and I can think of a few more as well... oh well...
