2004 Hugo Award Nominees: Short Story [Burstein, Michael A.; Gaiman, Neil; Haldeman, Joe; Levine, David D.; Resnick, Mike]: In contrast to the Novelette category, it's quite easy for me to rank the 2004 Hugo Award Nominees for Best Short Story. To prove it, here they are (apologies; I'm very tired but want to get this done tonight):...
2007 Hugo Award Nominees: Short Story: More Worldcon homework, this time the Hugo nominees for best short story. Like Chad (some spoilers), I was pretty unimpressed. My tentative ranking, with one-line comments, follows; more detailed discussion, with inevitable spoilers, is behind the cut. (This is only...
Gaiman, Neil, and Terry Pratchett: Good Omens: Another book I've been reading piecemeal, though over longer than this week, is Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's Good Omens. There's a spare copy of this in the car for when we get stuck in traffic, for me to read...
Gaiman, Neil, and Terry Pratchett: Good Omens (completed read): I finished that piecemeal re-read of Pratchett & Gaiman's Good Omens last night, on the grounds that reading the fat in-progress three-volume omnibus at bedtime was just asking for trouble (I tend to lose track of time. . .)....
Gaiman, Neil: (101-111) Sandman (Preludes and Nocturnes through The Wake; The Dream Hunters): No space opera after all; I was still a little out of sorts after moving and decided to re-read for some quality melodrama. Had narrowed it down to either Last Call, Look to Windward, or Neil Gaiman's Sandman, and...
Gaiman, Neil: (112) Sandman: Endless Nights: The Sandman: Endless Nights, written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by diverse others, is a collection of tales set in the Sandman universe, one story for each Endless. (Illustrated in the standard comic sense, that is, rather than a...
Gaiman, Neil: (201) American Gods: I found Neil Gaiman's latest novel, American Gods, extremely frustrating the first time I read it. I thought perhaps I would like it better upon re-reading: perhaps my high expectations, or my narrative expectations, got in the way unfairly....
Gaiman, Neil: (201.5) "The Monarch of the Glen": Gaiman's story in Legends II, "The Monarch of the Glen," is set in the universe of American Gods. Shadow finds himself in Scotland, hired to bodyguard a party against gatecrashers, by a little doctor who calls him a monster and...
Gaiman, Neil: Books of Magic: Non-cruise books read this week (split up for import into MT): After reading Hellblazer: Dangerous Habits, I re-read the original Books of Magic miniseries, written by Neil Gaiman, in which Constantine is part of the Trenchcoat Brigade that gives Tim...
Gaiman, Neil: Coraline (audio): Another audio book, this one Coraline, written and read by Neil Gaiman. On Wednesday, during our escape to air conditioning, we stopped in at our Local Independent Bookstore (hey, we were in the plaza anyway to do a couple...
Gaiman, Neil: Stardust (audio): I listened to Neil Gaiman reading his novel Stardust a few months after seeing the movie. I've previously reviewed this, so I'll just say here a few things I noticed about listening. First and unsurprisingly, it is much better than...
Vess, Charles: Book of Ballads, The: Another un-booklogged anthology, Charles Vess's The Book of Ballads. This is a collection of thirteen ballads adapted as sequential art by Vess, mostly from scripts by writers other than himself; nine were originally published by his Green Man Press, two...
