This week
James Bradley and
Ian Mond join Jonathan to discuss the five novels that have made the
final Hugo Awards ballot. The shortlisted novels are:
- Ancillary Sword by Ann Leckie (Orbit US; Orbit UK)
- The Dark Between the Stars by Kevin J. Anderson (Tor Books)
- The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison (Sarah Monette) (Tor Books)
- The Three-Body Problem by Cixin Liu, translated by Ken Liu (Tor)
- Skin Game by Jim Butcher (Roc Books)
We almost completely avoid issues surrounding the ballot, and instead focus on discussing the novels and what might make them interesting to read. Our thanks to James and Ian for making time to record the podcast. As always, we hope you enjoy the episode!
