Which mainstream science fiction or fantasy work would you say was the most racist mainstream science fiction or fantasy work?

(Mainstream = published by a legit publisher, not some vanity house)

Night of Power may be a classic example of the sort of thing Racefail was all about, but I don't think it belongs in any "most racist" listing, because that was clearly not authorial intent.

I don't think authorial intent -- and I agree it didn't intend to be racist -- gets a pass for incompetence. The book is built on taking every white supremacist trope in US society and assuming they're axiomatically factual. It's amazingly cohesive in that regard.
