How much do you know about recent speculative fiction (or, if you prefer, SF/F/H/Weird)? Larry Send a noteboard - 12/05/2011 11:48:47 PM
This post is largely due to thoughts generated from reading a few comments at this site in recent days. This is not meant to be a piss-measuring contest, but rather something that might encourage increased curiosity. Here goes:

1. Try to name up to five spec fic novels released in 2010-2011.

2. What about up to five spec fic anthologies?

3. Can you identify without looking it up at least two of the Hugo nominees for Best Novel?

4. What about the Nebula Award?

5. Do you feel that you are relatively well-informed on spec fic novels, especially the newer ones?

6. Which authors (or genre categories) would you like to know more about?

7. Which spec fic-oriented blogs can you name and/or have visited?

I usually know what is out; it just takes me a while to read it - 15/05/2011 07:23:05 PM 1043 Views
