Via Boing Boing, we have the list of Hugo and Retro Hugo Nominations for the 2003 and 1953 publishing years. No surprise, I've read all of the 1953 nominee novels:
The Caves of Steel — Isaac Asimov (Galaxy, Oct.–Dec. 1953)and none from 2003:
Fahrenheit 451 — Ray Bradbury (Ballantine)
Childhood's End — Arthur C. Clarke (Ballantine)
Mission of Gravity — Hal Clement (Astounding, April–July 1953)
More than Human — Theodore Sturgeon (Ballantine)
Humans — Robert J. Sawyer (Tor Books)
Ilium — Dan Simmons (Eos)
Singularity Sky — Charles Stross (Ace Books)
Blind Lake — Robert Charles Wilson (Tor Books)
The real highlight of the nominations is that you can access all of the current short fiction nominations via Multivac the worldwide information network Internet.
Maybe I'll even review them if I actually read them.
