MobileRead Recommended... Lists

When discussing some published "Top Fantasy Lists" in a thread here, I thought it would be fun to know what the most popular, most frequently recommended, and/or favourite fantasy reads were among MR users. There are many threads devoted to suggestions and individual's lists, but I was wondering how they would tally up as a group. MR users are discerning readers with broad experience, and I often use your suggestions to choose my next read.

So far I've created two Goodreads listopia lists - one for fantasy and one for science fiction - and I'm hoping MR users will add their favourites. The lists are dynamic and can be updated as books are read and nobody needs to do any record-keeping. You do need to have a Goodreads account, and I apologize to those of you who don't. Listopia was just the easiest means of creating such a list.

There is only one rule. Each book must be legally available as an eBook in at least one country. And one request - when recommending a series, please only add the first book (#1) in the series.

The Lists:

MobileRead Recommended Fantasy

MobileRead Recommended Science Fiction

MobileRead Recommended Mystery & Detective

And these are just for starters. If anyone wants to add a list for another genre, pm me or post in this thread and I will add it to this post.
