For me, the Hugo is an award that says a book is fabulous, shows me something new and different, blows my mind with magic, technology, setting, culture and/or concept and above all make it accessible, immediate and visceral. I need to be able to fall into the world, into the character without feeling hitches and jerks and I need to feel deeply connected to the characters and their plight.
Ann Leckie’s Ancillary Sword is my pick for first. Katherine Addison's The Goblin Emperor puts me in a quandary as to which book should be second place. |
