Library Journal
This volume presents the 2010 short fiction nominees for the Nebula Awards (winners to be announced May 21), voted on annually by the membership of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA). The strong and varied selections include James Patrick's bittersweet tale of a young girl growing up with an absent space-traveling mother and an AI room for a "nanny" ("Going Deep"), Rachel Swirsky's elegant and moving interpretation of the brief life of Agamemnon's daughter ("A Memory of Wind"), Kage Baker's award-winning novella "The Women of Nell Gwynne's," and a rambunctious comic story by 2010 SFWA Damon Knight Grand Master Joe Haldeman ("A !Tangled Web"). VERDICT Taking over the publishing reins from New American Library's ROC imprint, Tor has reformatted this annual as a fiction-only collection and also includes the 2009 short fiction winners (announced in May 2010). Along with its Nebula Award-related lists, including the winners in each category from 1955 to the present, this serves as a top-notch introduction to the genre for newcomers and seasoned readers alike.
Just add your information to the form below to enter (all information is guaranteed confidential and will be discarded once contest ends) and I will randomly pick one winner by Thursday June 1st. No multiple entries please-- all multiple entries will be discarded. Open everywhere.
Good luck!
