Random quote: Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts. There are seven words that will make a person love you. There are ten words that will break a strong man's will. But a word is nothing but a painting of a fire. A name is the fire itself. -- Patrick Rothfuss (The Name of the Wind)

Ancillary Justice, Kameron Hurley and, yes, another Christopher Priest (they sure do love that guy).

A fairly surprising list, to me, bar Ancillary Justice and The Adjacent.

I hadn't realised God's War was eligible, or that Evening's Empires would have had a big enough constituency given that it's a late book in a sequence that hasn't had a big pull before. And I know nothing at all about Ack-Ack Macaque.

If God's War wins it'll no longer be eligible for the Second Best challenge.

Neither will Ancillary Justice. I'm putting off reading anything new until the awards are announced so I don't have to switch around.
