And doesn't Tolkien break rule 1?
Well I put LotR on there, I suppose I should have said 'Middle Earth', Hobbit isn't really a prequel since it was written first and you've got Simillarion and Children of Hurin plus lost tales, it seems a legit inclusion under Rule 1, but probably more importantly if it wasn't on there I'd probably get a bunch of posts including it as an assumed 'oh duh'. But I confess the guideline is pretty arbitrary, especially since a lot of those series have combined word counts parallel to single books out of lot of the modern door-stoppers.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

So you're looking for series that are not yet on your list, yes? I'm a little confused.

Fair point, could be useful to point to whenever people ask the same question of what to read next.

Was that a snarky way of saying you don't like Adams or something?

I think it was a not so snarky way of saying Hitchhiker's Guide started as a radio show. *NM*

Clarke wrote both, so is the book really anything more than a novelization of the screenplay? *NM*
