As there was only one unanswered question, and pdurrant leads the field, I declare him the winner - over to you.

Final update:

1. The Mystery of Edwin Drood - Charles Dickens (pdurrant)
2. Amerika - Franz Kafka (issybird)
3. Answered Prayers - Truman Capote (issybird)
4. The Assassination Bureau, Ltd - Jack London (Bookpossum)
5. The Dark Tower - C.S. Lewis (pdurrant)
6. The Journal of Julius Rodman - Edgar Allan Poe
7. The Love of the Last Tycoon - F. Scott Fitzgerald (issybird)
8. The Mysterious Stranger - Mark Twain (drjd)
9. The Notion Club Papers - J. R. R. Tolkein (Shayne Parkinson)
10. Sanditon - Jane Austin (pdurrant)

Common theme - all unfinished at the time of the authors' death (pdurrant - 3 points)

pdurrant - 6 points
issybird - 3 points
drjd - 1 point
Bookpossum - 1 point
Shayne Parkinson - 1 point

I think I have a left-over quiz somewhere around. I'll dig it out this evening.

I suspect I only won by getting in with answers first!
