So what do you think of our list? Did our members back in 2001 vote accurately? Who would you add? Who would you take away? What did we get right? What did we get wrong?
My current top 10 fluctuates a lot, but I only agre writh one on yhat list. Here is who I enjoy (in no order)
M. John Harrison
Gene Wolfe
China Mieville
Lucius Shepard
Jeffrey Ford
Jeff Vandermeer
Kelly Link
Graham Joyce
Michael Moorcock
Catherynne M. Valente (fast riser)
Furthermore I think Goodkind, Jordan and Brooks are among the worst authors I have ever read in fiction. _________________ The Bodhisattva
As usual, I didn't vote in that list (in the hopes of keeping it neutral), and so I consequently didn't vote for any of those. It was a comparatively small group at the time, so pet interests got pushed easily to the forefront.
I've been considering the possibility of re-doing the two old lists now that we have a larger voting population from which to draw. What do you folks think? Is this list worth redoing? _________________ Violet "Violanthe" Kane

I would be all for re-doing this list. It is now 5 years later and maybe more people will submit their thoughts on current authors?
