PW Best Books of the Year

I knew Kay Kenyon was on to something when my twenty-something son couldn't put her new book down. And now, stunningly, Publishers Weekly has named BRIGHT OF THE SKY to its Best Books of the year list! This is huge. There are only seven sf novels on the list.

PW reviewed over 6,000 books this past year (did you know three thousand books are published daily in this country? Brrrrr.) Out of those 6,000 PW choose 150 (no, I'm not missing a zero) and Kay's wonderful romp of a book, with its drop-dead gorgeous Stephan Martiniere cover, is on that short list!

If you'd like to see the whole thing, in preparation for your Christmas shopping (!!!!!) here's the link: http://www.publishersweekly.com/article/CA6496987.html

And by the way, Stephan's work is quite well-known in France, I learned. Deservedly so. Kudos to Lou Anders at Pyr Books for this achievement, and for recognizing excellence when they see it.
