(Usually WorldCon is held in August but it was delayed this year due to COVID). The award ceremony takes place on Saturday December 18. The Hugo Award finalists, listed below, are chosen by a poll of readers.

Sunday Status Update: September 18, 2016

This week, Legolas begins to wonder where his wartime career is going.

Legolas: Journal Entry 3450333: At the court of Rohan. Iluvatar’s beard, what a dump. Whole place smells like horse, and it kind of soaks into whatever you’re wearing, so now I smell like horse.

Oz Reimagined: You might not even find yourself in Oz

Oz Reimagined edited by John Joseph Adams

Oz Reimagined is a collection of tales whose characters return as often, if not more often, to the “idea” of Oz as opposed to the actual Oz many of us read about as kids (or adults) and even more of us saw in the famed MGM version of the film. As its editors, John Joseph Adams and Douglas Cohen, say in their introduction: “You might not even find yourself in Oz, though in spirit, all these stories take place in Oz,
