On Books and Lists

I must agree with Ms. Bond's calls of shammery with respect to the Crescatian (pronounce it something like "Saskatchewan", but with more mumbling) "top 100" books list. Not only is there an inexcusable lack of the Vorkosigan series by Lois McMaster Bujold, but there's also a very disconcerting lack of the 87th Precinct series (Ed McBain), anything involving DI Morse (Colin Dexter), or anything by Neal Stephenson (in whose The Confusion I am presently ensconced and which the Volokh Conspiracy pronounced "excellent").

And just to rub salt in the wounds of the Chicago bloggers: their list only has 99 entries!
