This doesn't seem to have hit the wires yet - Scott Edelman's attempt to liveblog the event apparently never having started, and the SFWA website still not updated - but Jayme Lynne Blaschke has come up with the goods. I guess everyone else went to bed straight after the ceremony.

Guess that's a cue to read some Haldeman then. Hard on Susannah Clarke but it's not as though Strange and Norrell was a faultless piece of work I suppose.

Serenity though - woohoo! Whedon is not used to winning awards so I hope he enjoys it.

To be honest, I found Serenity a much weaker script than any of the episodes.

Yeah, but it was only up against two Battlestar Galactica episodes, rather than anything from Firefly.

*sigh* Yeah, I haven't seen any of the Galactica episodes since the mini-series. I would be watching it if it was any other series but I love my cheesy 1987-1980 version too much!

Having reading the Emshwiller and the Kress, I'm not a big fan of either of them, and it is outclassed by the Lanagan. The only problem I have with the Lanagan is that I don't find it to be particularly fantastical except maybe in feel.

I'm tempted to read the Haldeman now as well, since it beat three books I also enjoyed, and it won the Tiptree as well.

I love the two Kelly Link stories, so there will be no argument from me there.
