Over the summer National Public Radio compiled a list of the 100 top science fiction and fantasy books, based on listener nominations. J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings came in first place.
Well, in a sharp departure from the norm, NPR failed to provide any contextual analysis for the list. It was a list, and nothing more.
But wait, the folks at SFSignal.com have come to the rescue; they've developed a flowchart to help you figure out which book is right for you.
Below is a just a miniature representation of the actual flowchart, which you can check out in all its glory here.
