The nominations have been announced, and it's a kick to see how many of the Norton (YA) nominees I've either read or heard good stuff about:ANDRE NORTON AWARD NOMINEES, for the Nebula Awards, Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America 2009:
Hotel Under the Sand, Kage Baker (Tachyon, Jul 09)

I'm sad, sad, sad about Kage Baker, but I'm so glad there's one more book of hers I've never read. Can't wait to get my hands on that one. Meanwhile, good luck to our nominees! It's hard to even say who I want to win, because the list is just so stuffed full of awesome. Wow.
