Flavorwire has written an interesting article about the Greatest Female Sci-Fi/Fantasy Authors of All Time. They list some truly great authors that I highly recommend you read such as Octavia Butler, Connie Willis and Ursula LeGuin. A few I hadn't heard of, and one, Anne Rice, I would not have included. I consider her a horror author. I started thinking of all the truly tremendous, fantastic authors that weren't included; Sheri Tepper, Patricia McKillip, James Tiptree Jr. (yes, James was a woman), Mercedes Lackey, Joan Vinge, Vonda McIntyre, Kate Wilhelm, and Anne McCaffrey. All these authors are deserving of being on the list. In my humble opinion they need to lengthen or rework their list. Who would you add?
Make sure to pack some of these authors in your summer reading bag, you won't be disappointed!
