If you really want a good source of recommended titles, you might
subscribe to Locus (who do both an annual poll and a suggested reading
list), try Howard DeVore's list of Hugo, Nebula, World Fantasy and other
award winners, get the "Reader's Guide to SF" (assuming it's still in
print), buy the SF Encyclopedia, find the various Science Writers of
America Hugo and Nebula winners volumes, or go to a con and speak to
people there.  Any of these are more reliable than an sf-lovers poll.
