Номинациите за Хюго 2024

[Yan]

След резила от миналата година, номинациите за 2024 са май една идея по-нормални.
Пълен списък тук: https://www.thehugoawards.org/hugo-hist ... go-awards/

Някои по-интересни категории:

The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty (Harper Voyager, Harper Voyager UK)

Starter Villain by John Scalzi (Tor, Tor UK)

От номинираните в момента чета Witch King и макар да е доста добра, не мисля, че е чак за Хюго.

Нимона беше прекрасна, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves също, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse хем ми хареса, хем страда от синдрома на втори филм в трилогия.

Тук е забавно как Доктора и Стар Трек имат по две номинации.

Двете неща от номинациите, които съм прочел досега (Translation State и Rose/House), бяха едни от най-големите разочарования за годината за мен, дано останалите да са по-добре. Translation State започва интересно, обаче бързо става провлачена и сантиментална скука, в края на което всички уж сериозни проблеми се разрешават лесно по доста изсмукан от пръстите начин.
