5. James Tiptree, Jr - Her Smoke Rose Up Forever (NB this is a best-of collection but I can't think of a better way to nominate this hugely amazing author except by individual story, I suppose)
6. Adam Rex - The True Meaning of Smekday
7. Rebecca Stead - When You Reach Me
8. Melanie Rawn - Ruins of Ambrai (This is a weird pick! I picked it because I wanted fairly generic epic fantasy that wasn't Jordan, Brooks or Eddings.)
Movies:
9. 2001: A Space Odyssey
Graphic novel
10. Greg Rucka, Batwoman: Elegy
Glad everyone and her dog nominated ATLA! This was difficult, I hope someone out there noms The Hobbit and Asimov's Robot novels.
