Anatúrinbor Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 So, a silly gimmick is all you need to win the ACC award? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastard of Godsgrace Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 At least a winner I can feel good about. Now go for Nebula and Hugo. Triple crown for Leckie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datepalm Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I think God's War is a better novel, better SF and better feminism, but AC isn't a terrible choice as these things go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Selig Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I liked Ancillary Justice a lot, so I am fine with this. Even though I liked The Adjacent a bit more, but oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgambino Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 So, a silly gimmick is all you need to win the ACC award? I didn't care for Ancillary Justice very much, but there was certainly more to it than a "silly gimmick." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyedGhost Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I think God's War is a better novel, better SF and better feminism, but AC isn't a terrible choice as these things go.I agree, and I'm surprised it didn't win. I wonder if it having been released at such different times in the UK and the US had an effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Richard II Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I didn't care for Ancillary Justice very much, but there was certainly more to it than a "silly gimmick." This, except I liked it a lot. Edit: Also, have you actually read it? The "silly gimmick" if you are referring to what I think you are, is barely a part of the book. People on blogs just seemed to jump all over it and for some reason it became what the book was "about", even though it wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
