A half a dozen books from your list were read by me (for the most part).
51 Neuromancer
61 Slaughterhouse Five
94 Ender's Game
115 The Science Fiction of Edgar Allen Poe (half of the stories read)
135 Doomsday Book
181 The Dream Master
------------------------------------------------------------------------
_The Science Fiction of Edgar Allen Poe_
Table of Contents [1]
MS. found in a bottle
The unparalleled adventure of one Hans Pfaall
The conversation of Eiros and Charmion
A descent into the maelstro\xcc\x88m
The colloquy of Monos and Una
A tale of the Ragged Mountains
The balloon-hoax
Mesmeric revelation
The thousand-and-second tale of Scheherazade
Some words with a mummy

"189 The Science Fiction of Jack London" is the most intriguing element
to me. The notion of London as a SF author is new to me. Clarice Stasz
talks about London's SF on Sonoma State University's website. [2]
