hey all,

we've just added the BSFA award to the WWEnd database!  if you're not familiar with the BSFA award it is the British equivalent of the Hugo award.  there is, in fact, quite a bit of overlap between the 2 awards but it's still over 100 new novels added so check it out and be sure to tag the ones you've already read!

BSFA Main Page

BSFA Index

on the all award winners page we had to "go wide" to fit in the BSFA column so that page grows a bit when you get there.

All Winners Index

more to come!

Location: Dallas, Texas		ok, the All Winners Index got too wide with the additional award and we have another award coming: The British Fantasy Society Award so we've switched out the larger graphics and gone back to the small covers. that gave us room for all 9 to fit in the same width as the rest of the site and allows us space for the BFS in the future. much better than introducing a horizontal scroll! - dave

Here is the list of nominees that just came out for the 2009 BSFA:

Flood  The Gone-Away World The Night Sessions Anathem

Flood by Stephen Baxter

The Gone-Away World by Nick Harkaway

The Nights Sessions by Ken MacLeod

Anathem by Neal Stephenson

 

There are only four novels this year because of multiple ties in the voting.

It never fails that awards nominees start coming out and I feel woefully under-read! At least I can say that I've read shorts by Baxter and MacLeod. Perhaps Harkaway as well, but maybe his name just sounds familiar.
