New Books in Science FictionJulie E. Czerneda, Ed., “Nebula Awards Showcase 2017,” (Pyr, 2017)Since their establishment, the Nebula Awards have proven a trusty guide to what the next generation will consider a classic.
Take for example, the inaugural award for Best Novel, which went to Frank Herbert for Dune in 1965. Dune‘s impact can be measured in countless ways–not only in the loyalty of critics and fans (who have left in excess of half a million ratings on Goodreads) but in the proliferation of sequels, prequels, movies, TV shows, games, and more.
The 2015 Best Novel winner, Naomi Novik (for Uprooted), joins the ranks of science fiction and fant...2017-10-3130 minThe Future Is A Mixtape005: Captain Picard - “Tea. Earl Grey.
