Categories: Book News

I'm pleased as Punch (ahh, if only I were as good looking as Punch ...) that Gradisil has made the shortlist for the 2008 Philip K. Dick Award. Here's the list:

Impressive, what? It's interesting, I'd say, that when arranged alphabetically by author like that, the list of novel titles acrostically spells out GUF 'N' GAS. Not that this is in any way a commentary upon the excellence of the novels shortlisted this year.

    Oh, how I can't wait til you win, then you'll be famous, then I can say "I read him before it was cool."

    Does it mean any less if I say I haven't read any of the others? In all honesty, I did laugh at the "GUF 'N' GAS" comment.
