NPR's 50 Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Books of the Past Decade

This is a list of 50 science fiction and fantasy books or beginnings of book series selected by a committee of authors on behalf of NPR. They deliberately skipped some bestseller lists to make some less known works more famous, though in my opinion it still includes many well known names.
