Random quote: "The way I see it, being dead is not terribly far off from being on a cruise ship. Most of your time is spent lying on your back. The brain has shut down. The flesh begins to soften. Nothing much new happens, and nothing is expected of you." ― Mary Roach, Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers

Oops, looks like I had accidentally repeated two awards! I've swapped them out now for the correct books, still 12/12 .

Location: UK		I just finished Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes (maybe the most major SF book I hadn't already read?) to complete this challenge and also to complete all of my challenges due in 2015. Hurrah.

My 12 were:

Tehanu - Ursula le Guin - Locus Fantasy
Throne of the Crescent Moon - Saladin Ahmed - Locus First Novel
The Heir of Night - Helen Lowe - Morningstar
Ancillary Sword - Ann Leckie - Locus SF
The Separation - Christopher Priest - Clarke
The Moment of Eclipse - Brian Aldiss - BSFA
Tooth and Claw - Jo Walton - World Fantasy
The Three-Body Problem - Cixin Liu - Hugo
Timescape - Gregory Benford - Campbell
Some Kind of Fairy Tale - Graham Joyce - Holdstock
Sabriel - Garth Nix - Aurealis Fantasy
Flowers for Algernon - Daniel Keyes - Nebula

Hard to pick a favourite. Moment of Eclipse was maybe the one I got the least out of.

Is there any appetite for this challenge in 2016? Maybe with an additional level of reading one winner from each tracked award?

Edit - just had a look and 25 tracked awards plus Tiptree makes this a challenging aim indeed, maybe stick to 12 ha ha
