Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess


You have watched the movie. Read the book and the real ending.
Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson


Cyber punk offering from the author of the Baroque cycle, Neal Stephenson. Second time Stephenson made my list.
The Lions of Al Rassan by Guy Gavriel Kay


Beautifully written, historical-fanatsy that Kay seems to excell at.
Dark Tower by Stephen King


King's grand effort into fantasy, really samrtly interweaving existing stories from his otehr famosu works loosely into his Dark Tower series. Like it or hate it; no one else could have written this. One of the reasons Flagg is one of the best villains in speculative fiction.
American Gods by Neil Gaiman


Gaiman's third appearance, his most ambitous work, present day fantasy tale touching on our country, it's root, and where we and they stand, mixed with an increible Norse twist.

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley


This half of my list has featured clasic works like Bradbury, and Orwell depicting, and in someways predicting the path our society are on. Brave New World is perhaps the best of the novels in this vein. Brave New World revisited which is a self-criique and reexamination by Huxley of Brave New World can be found collectively here
Animal Man, The Invisibles by Grant Morrison


Yes there 2 seperate works, and yes it's another comic offering. But it's Grant Morrison, Comic fans need no explanations.

The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle


Nostalgic choice, although defintely not witout merit,. I remember the Japanese cartoon when I was younger.
A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller Jr.


Post apocalyptic science fiction, but not limited to that, one of the true bonafide classic works of an author questioning faith, technologies, and modern values. Powerful.
Chronciles of Narnia by CS Lewis


Classic kids tale, get all the Inkling's Narnia work in one book here.
