    And, of course, Richard Adams, for his masterpiece Watership Down. Though it's just a story about rabbits, it is a great saga of survival.
    I can't read Watership Down, it's just too sad. It's bizarre, I can preside over the deaths of thousands of Gallic tribesmen, but rabbits snuffing it does for me completely.

    Frank Herbert's Dune series has a good chance of remaining an SF-classic even at the end of this century IMHO
