Books That Exceeded Schlocko's Expectations - Page 2

Hey, I'm not the most original listmaker, but since I've created only the third "exceeded expectations" list after Todd and MarkD, I can at least call myself an "early adapter." Listed are books which introduced me to favorite authors, as well as books by authors whom I gave a second chance after disliking one of their other works. See? Sometimes hope should triumph over experience.
