willravel, you have a problem with Jane Austen but not J. K. Rowling? I wouldn't take this list too seriously, especially since we really don't know the criteria for selection besides being chosen by Britons. I'm guessing this is merely a popularity list--perhaps chosen from a survey conducted by a popular magazine.
Besides, I'm always wary of lists that include works by V. C. Andrews.
