The Future is AWARDS AWARDS AWARDS!!!!

By Nick Mamatas May 08, 2013

We've gotten some good news recently! Of course, as you may remember, "Mono No Aware" by Ken Liu from The Future Is Japanese is a Hugo Award nominee.

Like a box of Crackerjack box, there are prizes inside! Literary prizes!

But we have more award news! We were especially thrilled last week when Project Itoh's novella "The Indifference Engine" was nominated for the Shirley Jackson Award—this being the first time one of the Japanese originals in the book was lauded with a nomination.

Several of our stories (all from English-language authors) were on the Locus Magazine recommended reading list and today we are pleased to announce that both Ken Liu's story and the anthology itself are Locus Award finalists!

So that's a Hugo, two Loci, and a Shirley Jackson. What are you waiting for? The future awaits! Buy the book!
