Grand Master Reading ChallengeMattastrophicThe votes are in and the Grand Master Reading Challenge January review winner is Mattastrophic for his excellent review of The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin. Congratulations, Matt!

For his effort Matt will receive a GMRC T-shirt, a GMRC button and a set of commemorative WWEnd Hugo Award bookmarks. Matt also got his choice of books from the WWEnd bookshelf. He picked Blackdog by K. V. Johanson (Pyr 2011). I hope we’ll be seeing a review of that one in future! Be sure to visit Matt at his blog, Strange Telemetry, for more SF/F reviews.

Of course Matt’s was not the only great review and we wouldn’t want our runners up to walk away empty handed. We’ll be sending out buttons and bookmarks to them as well.

A hearty thanks to everyone for helping us get the GMRC off to such a great start. Despite missing the first 10 days of the month you guys cranked out the books and reviews and very generously helped us spread the word on your blogs. February has started off strong too and we hope to have even more readers and reviewers joining in. If you have any friends that are up for a reading challenge the GMRC is one that you can easily catch up on if you miss the start. Let ’em know it’s not too late to sign up. There are more prizes to be won too so good luck to you all!

It was a very comprehensive, yet easily readable review, AND it made me want to read the book. Thanks, Matt.
