Do you have books that you recommend as classics in their speculative fiction subgenre? Here are a few of mine, most of which exist as battered and beloved copies on my bookshelves.
Space Opera
The Witches of Karres by James H Schmitz
Paranormal Romace
Moon Called by Patricia Briggs
Paranormal Historical Romance
Bride of the Rat God by Barbara Hambly
Fantasy series
The Discworld books by Terry Pratchett
Steampunk
"Clockwork Fagin" a short story by Cory Doctorow
Urban Fantasy
Sacred Ground by Mercedes Lackey
Science Fiction
The Mind Readers by Margery Allingham (This masquerades as a thriller in her mystery series starring Albert Campion, but it's SF, and as with all her books, wonderful)
Children's books
Archer's Goon by Diana Wynne Jones
