Octavia Butler's _Parable of the Sower_ and it's companion, _Parable of the Talents_ are two of the best books I've ever read. Her Hugo winning short story _Bloodchild_ was my introduction to her oeuvre.

Sherri Tepper has written some good books, but _Grass_ is a masterpiece.

Ursula K le Guin has written some masterworks which have already been mentioned, however, her collection of four novellas titled _Four Ways to Forgiveness_ has so far been overlooked. I'm a huge fan of _The Dispossessed_ and _The Left Hand of Darkeness_, but _Four Ways.._ blew me away.
