"Red Planet" (Heinlein)
"Ready Player One" (Cline)
"Nightwatch" (Pratchett)

Garlan ✌ asked Andy Weir:

I understand that your book was mostly "ignored" by the publishing houses until it became a hit as a self-promoted e-book. Do you see this as the new medium for unknown authors to get their works seen and published?
