Check. I was deluding myself; distracted by thoughts of short-story collections, and horror, showing up on the list.
As for fantasy, I'd say Little, Big qualifies, and is rightly placed. More recently, I wonder what I'd hope to see there from the pure fantasy camp - I honestly can't think of something recent that's truly "significant": Perdido Street Station maybe? Or something by Patricia McKillip? Or perhaps Phil Pullman's trilogy?
