So what do you think of this lineup? Any surprises in there? Are you concerned that there are no women on the list? This is the fourth nomination for Kim Stanley Robinson‘s 2312. I suspect there may be more to come as well. Congrats to all the nominees!

Those are some good looking covers.
Some substance, it appears.
Interesting! I don’t actually know any of the authors besides Ken MacLeod and KSR, but I think there are definitely some novels to add to my reading list here. Also, I agree these are some nice covers, too.
I’ll take the juried awards over the Hugo or Nebula, at this point.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
