In what sense would you say they're important? Did they influence many other works that succeeded them? Was it a proto-grimdark?
In any case, I don't think people should care that much about whether or not a work is influential or not, when deciding if they should read it (or look positively at stuff they have previously read, in this case.) There are lost of good books to read and many modern works can be much better than the "canon" that inspired them.
