The Most Eagerly Awaited and Long Overdue SF/F Books

From an SF Signal post via IO9 inspired by a misquote by Charles Stross that lead me to google Irontown Blues by John Varley:

Texas Best Grok, aka Fred Kiesche, has posted a comprehensive list of long overdue science fiction books. Here, "long overdue" means it was promised and/or announced a really long time ago, but has yet to see publication.

I edited Sf Signal's list to those authors still with us:

* The Star Conquerors by Ben Bova
* Cyteen II by C.J. Cherryh
* Demon With a Glass Hand by Harlan Ellison
* Blood and Vic by Harlan Ellison
* The Ghost Ships by Larry Niven
* Inferno (updated version) by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle
* Purgatorio by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle
* The Moon Bowl/Moonmites by Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle and Michael Flynn
* Falkenberg on Kennicott by Jerry Pournelle
* Mamelukes by Jerry Pournelle
* Spartan Hegemony by Jerry Pournelle
* The Return of the Space Viking by Jerry Pournelle
* Irontown Blues by John Varley
* Heaven Chronicles by Joan Vinge

All books I would not mind reading.

Texas Best Grok's full annotated list is here and worth checking out:
