Congrats to all John W. Campbell Award Finalists (Jay, Lou, Ian….great to see your works in there, fellas). There are two awards in science fiction that are called “the Campbell Awards”, and this one is the juried award for Best SF Novel, presented at the Campbell Awards Conference in Lawrence, Kansas (not to be confused with the one for Best New Writer, presented at the Hugo Ceremony every year).

Amongst this year’s finalists, I’m especially pleased to see two books that I cover-illustrated — Rebecca Ore’s TIME’S CHILD and Sheri S. Tepper’s THE MARGARETS, both published by Eos. Awesome. 🙂 Big congrats to Diana Gill and Jennifer Brehl over there.
