There are multiple awards coming up, and many of them (like the Hugos) are more prestigious (currently) but this one is close to my heart. You don't need to be a paid up $50 member of something literary, you just need to be able to mouse-click. And while I'm sure Mr Campbell was a great person (I learned about the Campbell award today) ... I've _read_ David Gemmell, many times, and loved his work. He died too soon and this award is a great tribute to him and I'd love to see it go from strength to strength. So this is the one I'm going to talk about and the rest can go hang :)
From the ten debut novels I read three and gave up one. Fortunately my two favorite debut novels are on the list.
ReplyDeleteFinally I decided to vote for Prince of Thorns.
Now you know that you got at least one vote.
