Inspired and seeded by the list at
http://www.genreunderground.com/20-ob...
Only for books that you would 5-star and have <5000 ratings and are at least earlier than 2000 or they will be removed. Some books on the original list do not meet this criteria.
So don't put hugo and nebula winners or books that have blockbuster movies. Actually, feel free to put Hugo and Nebula Winners and books with blockbuster movies - as long as they have less than 5000 ratings and are earlier than 2000.
Other lists of obscure science fiction and fantasy though not necessarily awesome:
Fantasy with <100 ratings
Science Fiction with < 100 ratings
Best Forgotten Fantasy of the 20th Century
Best Forgotten Science Fiction of the 20th Century

books that were on the original list were specifically given a pass. that said it's been awhile since this list was created and it is easier to maintain without worrying about those books.

Not the '5- star' and '<5000 ratings' bit. But you're right when you say that the list has been created a while ago and is much easier to maintain if books of >5000 ratings are deleted.
