I'm very surprised that Narnia was so far down the list...

@Loner, the Narnia group are regarded variously as kid's works, fantasy, or religious books, which may explain why they're not more popular. They're also uneven in quality, which leads me to think that the first of the series would rate considerably higher in popularity than the rest.

I was surprised not to see Pratt & de Camp's The Incomplete Enchanter or Land of Unreason on the list, instead of de Camp's Lest Darkness Fall. The list seems extremely personal.

YIKES!!!

I suddenly feel inadequate since I haven't read ANY of those books!

I think it's about time I tell you all that I'm actually Blind and my pet monkey called Bonko is actually typing my messages for me

@Vehemence, you are missing out on some pretty good fantasy. Some of it is even up here on the Internet, I think. At the very least, there's some excellent fantasy to check out. Try:

I'm sorry to say, I've only read 15 of them:
2, 11, 31, 32, 42, 49, 52, 57, 67, 71, 88, 89, 92, 98, 99.

Why do they group some tseries together (Foundation, Narnia) while separating others (Enders Game, Speaker for the Dead)?
