		<description><![CDATA[The Hugo winners have been announced, and I&#8217;m stunned that 3 out of 4 of my favorites won. Evidently there was a massive attack of good taste. (By which I mean, they agree with me.)
But that&#8217;s not why I&#8217;m happy.

Here are the ones I voted on:

I have to admit, for a while I wasn&#8217;t sure I was going to make it. But I couldn&#8217;t invoke the 150 page rule because I liked the first 150 pages.

		<description><![CDATA[First, a confession: I&#8217;m only halfway through Brasyl, by Ian McDonald. It&#8217;s a dense, detailed, demanding story that&#8217;s impossible to read quickly, but I&#8217;m glad to spend the time for this book. After fighting my way through the Old  Man&#8217;s War series, it&#8217;s such a relief to read something that&#8217;s consistently well-written.

		<description><![CDATA[The Last Colony reads like it was written by the same John Scalzi who writes his blog, which is relaxed, humorous, and entertaining. In Old Man&#8217;s War and The Ghost Brigades, the prose tends to be stiff, the humor forced, and the story begins only after chapters and chapters of exposition, and is constantly brought [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=237&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Dark matter, dark energy . . . dark integers. They’re all around us, but we don’t usually see them, because they don’t quite play by the rules.
How cool is that? I really like the parts where it plays with the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=writingeveryday.wordpress.com&blog=2980432&post=233&subd=writingeveryday&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Whoa, wait a second. An ingot. Of metallic hydrogen. Okay, I see what kind of story &#8220;Glory,&#8221; by Greg Egan is going to be. Old school, hard core, science fiction.

Chalcedony wasn&#8217;t built for crying. She didn&#8217;t have it in her, not unless her tears were cold tapered glass droplets annealed by the inferno heat that had crippled her.
