I don't know; I can see reasons for almost every one of these to be considered a milestone of some kind.
Actually, even the one that I'd consider an exception -- The Sword of Shanana -- was something of a milestone, when you think about it; it opened the floodgates of blatant Tolkien pastiches that now dominate the fantasy shelves.
