Today's ISFDB weirdness

ISFDB has a "disowned by its author" tag. The books thus tagged are:

The Wind from Nowhere by J. G. Ballard
Probe by Margaret Wander Bonanno
The Star Conquerors by Ben Bova
A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess
Survivor by Octavia E. Butler
Rage by Stephen King
Astronauci by Stanislaw Lem
Aeneis by Virgil

The Butler is a legit awful book, the only true dud Butler ever wrote
(very early in her career). The Bova is also from early in his career,
his first novel, written for Winston. I must have read it but I don't
remember it. In fact, I thought the book Bova disowned was the sequel,
Star Watchmen. The others, I don't know the backstories.

Weird so many of them are from authors whose surnames begin with "b".
