Well, you've read a lot more that I haven't than I have that you haven't.

I read They'd Rather Be Right (or at least parts of it) when it came out in ASF. I was subscribing then; it was Astounding then, not Analog.

I have a copy of This Immortal. I don't think it quite as good as Lord of Light, but pretty close. It does a similar thing for Greek mythology that LoL does for Hindu mythology. And that Creatures of Light and Darkness tried to do for Egyptian, but not as successfully. I tried to read the last 35 years ago, but failed. I recently picked up a copy and tried again, with better success, but decided I was wiser earlier.

I picked up both V Vinge books a bit ago, but haven't got to reading them yet.

I made it all the way through the first Harry Potter book. I've sampled most of the others, heavily at times, but haven't made it all the way through.

Impressive list.
