Inspired the BBC's 'The Big Read' weekend, and also Emily's Top 10 CDs page (which is where I stole the technical know-how to be able to make this page!), this guide entry is for the researchers of h2g2 to tell the rest of us their Favourite 10 books they have ever read.

The idea being that members of the h2g2 community leave messages giving me their lists, which I will (eventually) add to this page.

Like with Emily's Top 10 CDs page, nothing's set in stone, and you can change your selection if you wish. But make them your ten favourite books, the ones you loved best, rather than the ones that you think sound most impressive!

Oh, and it doesn't matter what order you put them in!

Cheers,

H2G2 Top 10 Authors (so far)

The voting so far gives the not-altogether-surprising result that h2g2 researchers have a penchant for Sci-Fi and Fantasy, and they like Douglas Adams best of all - this researcher was very pleased to see a certain terminally over-rated purveyor of swords, sorcery and hobbitry knocked off the top spot. Charles Dickens is the most popular classical author by a long way - much more heavily supported than Shakespeare or Oscar Wilde, for example. Authors bubbling just under the Top 10 include Nick Hornby, JD Salinger, John Irving, Jane Austen, Jack Kerouac, Iain M Banks, Bill Bryson, Hunter S Thompson and PG Wodehouse. They'd make an interesting dinner party, wouldn't they? An honourable mention must go to Willard Price, who's been suspended following a stewards inquiry - he would be up there in joint sixth place if all eight of his votes hadn't been placed by the same researcher...

Here's the Complete List of Lists...
