all those unknown names.
begins to sound like on of those music critics who think they are geniuses so they bring all kinds of songs and bands you never heard of, and say these are the best.
"Redemption in indigo" for example, anyone read it here ?

So Stories: All-New Tales wins both Best Novella and Best Short Story but DOESN'T win Best Anthology? And as far as I can tell the winner of Best Anthology had no individual stories even nominated in either category. How does that even make sense?

Redemption in Indigo was a great book.

And once again no award for Under Heaven. That's a pity. :(

Sad to see Under Heaven didn't show. Kay was brilliant.
