I’ve reviewed the short stories and all but one of the novels, and I had good intentions regarding the novellas and novelettes. Unfortunately, a busy schedule and the recent, unexpected death of a friend means that you’ll have to discuss this year’s Hugo-nominated shorter fiction on your own.
Below you will find links. The 2004 Hugos will be awarded this weekend in Boston.
