Boy, that was surprisingly hard. I had to make a list and then cross
off till I had only 10 left, and I might have chosen a couple of
others on a different day.
I wound up voting for BotNS (of course), the Chronicles of Thomas
Covenant (it has its problems but it sparked a revolution in "heroic"
fantasy), Dhalgren (also of course), Doomsday Book, The Female Man,
Left Hand of Darkness, the Night's Dawn trilogy, Perdido Street
Station, and the Sandman.
On another day I might have picked Bridge of Birds, Canticle for
Liebowitz, or Lord of Light.
