  • Nebula Finalists 2001

    From James Nicoll@21:1/5 to All on Mon Sep 16 14:03:11 2024
    Right, it is not until 2002 that Nebulas for 2001 get handed out, so
    my hit rate is still appalling.

    Which 2001 Nebula Finalist Novels Have You Read?

    Darwin's Radio by Greg Bear
    A Civil Campaign by Lois McMaster Bujold
    Crescent City Rhapsody by Kathleen Ann Goonan

    Midnight Robber by Nalo Hopkinson

    All but the De Lint. I went off De Lint with Svaha.

    Argonautica by Walter Jon Williams

    The Swanwick title looks familiar, but I can't remember if I have read
    it.

    Only the Bear, Bujold, McDevitt. The Bujold was the best of those 3, IMO.

    No short works read.
