/tg/ Approved Literature
We're imaginative folks here on /tg/, and there's a lot of tuff which insites this.
Fantasy
- J.R.R. Tolkein - The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and anything else he wrote: The great grand-daddy of modern fantasy. at Not having even the slightest familiarity with his work is inexcusable
- Robert E. Howard - Conan the Barbarian: Conan the Barbarian was born from his quill. Also a seminal classic
Science Fiction
- Edgar Rice Burroughs - A Princess of Mars: Iconic, manly, and fuckin' A!
- Frank Herbert - Dune & its sequels: World-building, politic, super-humans - it's one helluva party. The spice must flow!
Horror
- H.P. Lovecraft - The Call of Cthulu & Other Stories, Dreams in the Witch-House, At the Mountains of Madness, and enything else he wrote - Lovecraft is to modern horror what Tolkein was to fantasy.
Mystery
- Raymond Chandler - The Big Sleep: The grandfather of Noir.
