As with the previous core lists, here are twenty Urban Fantasies chosen entirely on the basis of merit and significance to the field1. No implication is intended that these are the only twenty works you should consider2.

Persons unfamiliar with one or two of the works, congratulations! You’re one of today’s Ten Thousand!

1: There are two filtering rules:

Only one work per author per list

Any given work by a particular author can appear on only one list. A given author may, however, have works on various lists but each instance of their work will be unique.
