2022 Hugo Award: Best Novelette

posted by [personal profile] emperor at 01:43pm on 02/08/2022 under
I had some trouble ranking these, especially the top two or three...
  1. Unseelie Brothers, Ltd., Fran Wilde. Tailors who make show-stopping gowns, if you can bear the cost...
  2. Bots of the Lost Ark, Suzanne Palmer. Really pleased to have another "bots" story, this was delightful.
  3. Colors of the Immortal Palette, Caroline M. Yoachim. Art, immortality, colour, coping with change. I enjoyed the construction of this.
  4. That Story Isn’t the Story, John Wiswell. A creepy horror about the trauma of escaping abusive relationships
  5. L’Esprit de L’Escalier, Catherynne M. Valente. What if Orpheus hadn't looked back, but the result still wasn't a happy ever after? This is nicely done, but grim.
  6. O2 Arena, Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki. I get what the author is angry about, but I still didn't like this, and I'm not sure it's that well put together either.

Ekpeki is the guest of honor at a conference here in Florida next spring. I have zero interest in seeing him. I am in the minority, I think.
