And the winner of the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel… isn’t the one I thought would win and hugely enjoyed, nor the one I loved and would have been delighted if it had won. Nope, it was the one that, erm, I didn’t hate I guess. Not sure I would have finished it if I’d not been writing a review for SF Crowsnest, but there wasn’t actually anything to hate and the prose was decent enough. Ah well, back in my box.
