More Hugo reviews, including Celebrity Deathmatch in French
Just for completeness - as I guess the voting deadline has now passed - but Aaron Hughes has notified me of his reviews of the novella, novelette and short story categories. See also Tim Walters on all the fiction categories.
Christian Sauvé has done much the same, with one post calmly and soberly discussing the merits or otherwise of the short fiction nominees, and a second the recasting this year's contest for Best Novel as if it were an episode of Celebrity Deathmatch whose climax may not satisfy everyone but would certainly be most gratifying to fluffcthulhu. Both of these are in French, but I particularly recommend working through the latter, certainly the most entertaining commentary I've seen on the Hugo novel nominees this year, or any year come to that.
Will add both of these to my master list but probably not until much later in the month.
