Giant squid!!!

"Atomic" bomb(s)!!!

Bad symbolic names (Ned Land?*groans*)!!!

What's not to love?

ETA:

I am delighted to see you included Silverberg's [i]Book of Skulls[/i]. You might be the second person I have ever met who has read this book.

I'm glad you left off [i]Glory Road[/i]. Awful. Just awful.

Not often enough, apparently....

Make that three... I didn't much like it way back when I read it, but I have to admit, it's stuck with me, and after twenty years I can remember every detail of the plot.

Any reason you didn't include Hal Duncan's Vellum? It's one of the best books I've ever read and I know you gave it a 9.5, which I think is better than several other books on the list got from you.
