hugo awardThe GeekyLibrary Crew enjoy the Hugo Awards, if only for bringing to our attention so many great sci-fi and fantasy novels.

Although we don’t always agree with the winners (one past winner only received 2 stars…) most of the time they bring amazing books to our attention.

In addition to trying to review past Hugo Award winners for Best Novel, we also stated back in April that we would try to review all the 2013 nominees before WorldCon at LoneStarCon.

The winner will be announced in a ceremony on September 1st. Here are the links to the reviews as we complete them.
