Database of Science Fiction Books and Authors

The Science Fiction and Fantasy Book List Site (http://www.sfbooklist.co.uk/) is an attempt to put together a comprehensive bibliography of science fiction and fantasy authors. Considering that this site has over 4,000 authors, they're doing a pretty good job.

Oddly enough, I can't find a search engine for this site; maybe I'm not looking in the right place? Anyway, browsing is easy, authors are listed in alphabetical order.

I tried Harry Turtledove since I'm currently on an alternate history jag. Sure enough, here's there. The top of the page links to his official site, his country, and his year of birth. After that there's a list of his books, from the first book of the The Videssos Cycle to Thessalonica. Books are marked as science-fiction, fantasy, or collections.

Information varies slightly between authors -- David Weber, for example, has an unofficial site listing instead of official. I found that if I couldn't find the author in a glance at the index page then searching for them on Google with the query suffix site:sfbooklist.co.uk worked very well. A nice site, but I'd love a search engine, especially something like Free Find which could break results out by author.
