Locus Recc's & Voting Opportunity
Feb. 3rd, 2007 04:32 pmMy personal Press Agent without Portfolio, Cat Eldridge, has just sent me the gladsome tidings that The Privilege of the Sword has made the 2006 Locus Recommended Reading list as one of the Best Fantasy Novels of 2006 - in there with some very good company!
He also points out that all are invited to cast their vote online for the 37th annual Locus Awards for Best Fantasy Novel of 2006 and other things (such as Best Young Adult Novel, which unaccountably does not list Delia Sherman's Changeling on the ballot, or Best Short Story [novellette? I'll have to check the length] , missing "La Fée Verte" from the otherwise well-represented Salon Fantastique anthology - but there's plenty of room for write-ins).
I'm just saying.
I must add that the Locus Recc's tend to be brilliantly reliable: if you're not sure what good books/stories you might have missed this year, just go down their list and you won't be disappointed.
