check out this nice fantasy list I found r fantasy s Official Underrated and Underread Fantasy.

It's especially good in the 1000 to 9999 ratings fantasy books. This list would have to have a lot more voters (or maintainers to be as good - given the 100 votes per person limit.

Ketutar wrote: "A Dead Djinn in Cairo — 10,072 ratings" - given the size of this list - having the page number is always helpful

Thank you for pointing this out. These lists require a lot of upkeep. As a non-librarian you can most help by voting for 100 books already on these lists that only have one vote.

As a librarian if you would add the books over number to the next list and remove them from the current list.
