Good to see Travis Baldree winning Astounding Award for Best New Writer. Legends & Lattes was one of my favorites reads last year - looking forward to the prequel next month.

Barely recognize any of the books or authors there, especially the winners.

I've listened to Travis Baldree narrate Cradle, so I'm probably gonna check out his Legends & Lattes book.

It didn't win, but I read The Scholomance which is listed in the series section. If you're interested in unconventional magic systems then I'd recommend it.

Nettle & Bone was the big winner. Reading the blurb doesn't immediately call out to me. Worth checking out?

The Scholomance series by Naomi Novak is quite good, her best and I've liked all her books. Yes it's a Potter derivative, but doesn't feel derivative but inventive and de-disneyfied.

Oh, thanks, I didn't notice here (scanned just the titles and winners).

I liked her previous two non-series books (Uprooted and Spinning Silver).

Little surprised that such a renowned sci-fi award is hosted on a plain WordPress site. A welcome surprise.

The site is quite good actually, with lots of information and a extensive archive.
