Ancillary Justice is on a roll winning the Clarke and BSFA. Ann Leckie does it again

Location: Cheshire, England		Well done Ann. Though I do feel a little sorry for her - that second book has a lot to live up to.

Location: UK		I must admit, I thought it wouldn't take the Clarke. I enjoyed it, but "feels" like a Hugo book, to me. The Clarke is often a bit more literary. I'm pleased, though. I think it has a good shot at the Nebula this weekend too.

It's not on the Locus recommended list for best novel (although it is for First Novel). I don't know if that makes it ineligible for the Locus SF award.
