"The long ships" by the swede Frans G. Bengtsson. An historical novel that beat many a fantasy story to powdered silt in comparison.
That's a good list but how cud you miss out Stephen Donaldson? He's the best sci-fi writer of all time imoQuote:

Well I've read the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant...
It was okay, but Donaldson didn't exactly rock my world.
Thomas was too emo for me. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. :)
Arthur C Clarke is the best SF author, imo.
The reason being a lot of what he envisioned in his stories has come to pass in his own lifetime.
Satellites for example.
When NASA or ESA need a visionary, they call Professor Clarke.
One of my favorite authors to this day is CS Lewis.
