Novels: Probably the only category where I will use all five of my nominations. At the moment it looks like:
River of Gods by Ian McDonald *
Newton’s Wake by Ken MacLeod *
Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell *
The Year Of Our War by Steph Swainston *
Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susannah Clarke *
Stars lead to where I’ve blogged about it.

Best Related Book: The Cambridge Companion to Science Fiction reviewed on my site here.

Shorter Fiction: So far very few pieces stand out for me. “Winterfair Gifts”, by Lois McMaster Bujold, “Enta Geweorc” by Nicholas Waller, and those I liked off the Nebula long list. Will review what else I’ve read, check out the Strahan/Haber collection over the weekend, and vote next week.
