I thought that this may be of some interest to folks here...Tor.com (the SF/F book publisher) is hosting a blog series that explores the books and authors that Gary Gygax listed in Appendix N of the 1e AD&D DMG (aka Inspirational Reading).  So far, they've discussed Robert E. Howard and his Conan story "Red Nails," Poul Anderson and his novel Three Hearts & Three Lions, and Sterling Lanier's Hiero's Journey, which was one of the few books listed in Appendix N that I was completely unfamiliar with (based on the blog post, I immediately ordered a used copy off of Amazon).  They release new posts on Monday afternoons and I'm looking forward to them re-reading some of the more obscure stuff on the list:
