2009 Hugo and Campbell Award Nominees Announced
March 19th, 2009 by Kevin
The full list of nominees (for both the Hugo Awards and the John W Campbell Award for Best New Writer) is available on the official Hugo Awards site, and on Anticipation’s web site. The announcement on the Anticipation web site includes links to some of the nominees, including free downloads of selected nominees.
I’m immensely relieved to see that Best Graphic Story got enough votes to stay on the ballot, sad that Mushishi didn’t get a look in, and puzzled that with as much attention I’ve paid to this category, four of the nominees are things I’ve never heard of before. (After a little Clustying: it appears that two of them got massive promotion from Cory Doctorow, one had a good review in Locus, and Serenity is in there on the strength of the long-time Joss Whedon supporters.)
