Why are people adding well known/established authors like Haruki Murakami, Tom Sharpe and Anne McCaffery?

I also saw Clarissa Clare, which ticked me off, especially since I can't find Justin's book. What number are you, Justin????

I have no idea. I am pretty sure I originally created this list, and I'm happy to see how popular it has gotten! But it definitely was not meant for well-known authors.

Thank you for adding my book Beyond the Tears to this list. It is a great day when an "little known" author is listed in a "best of" with other great unknowns. Cheers, Lynn

If I understand it correctly, I must have read the book before I can vote for it. Fair enough - trouble is, out of the 100 displayed I have not read a single one and I have over a period of time bought quite a few indie books, or books written by my 'friends' providing I like the genre. Bought another today.

Please remove City of Fallen Angels from this list. If there is a single fan of fantasy on this site who has never even heard of Cassandra Clare, they need help.

Seriously? I've never heard of her. What's more, when I ran a poll a couple of years ago about favourite genre books, I got 100 responses naming over 600 different novels, and not a single person mentioned her once. I'ver never heard her name in conversation in RL or on the internet until now, and I don't recall ever having seen her books in a bookshop.

I'm not denying she's famous, if you say she is. There are a vast number of fantasy books I haven't heard of - including basically all of the post-twilight PNR stuff, which I've never paid any attention to. What I AM saying is that if you think every fantasy fan has heard of her, you've got a very myopic view of fantasy fandom.

Perhaps I phrased that poorly, or more out of bitterness than not, but with 70k reviews on that book alone, you can hardly say that she's "Little-Known."

Ah, right, ok. Young Adult Paranormal Urban Fantasy with Vampires and Angels, by a Harry Potter fanficcer, published within the last five years. That's so completely niche that I doubt many of the 'fantasy' fans I know would have heard of it, and I don't imagine it'd even be shelved under 'fantasy' in most bookshops, although admittedly it might be nearby. Somehow, as a fantasy fan, I don't think I'm going to feel I "need help" for not having noticed that one.

[Before people jump in: I'm not saying she's a bad writer, I've never read her (or heard of her). But there are books every fantasy fan ought to have heard of, and these really don't look like being some of them.]

[Wrote my next comment before I saw this one, didn't mean to pile on]

Yeah, I'm fine with saying she's not little-known, especially given the clarification at the top of the poll - it was just the implication that there was something wrong with me if I wasn't up to speed on all the latest teenage romance novelists that I took objection to.

This is neat that someone wanted to make a list of little known authors. I can appreciate that being one myself. But GONE WITH THE WIND, seriously? lol Between that, Twilight and Harry Potter, there is no way this list is being very fair. Someone please take the well known down. And just because a book is older doesn't mean it's not well known. Eesh
