I've got to agree with Andrew on this. GoF is a good
book, but not, IMO, on the same level with A Canticle
For Leibowitz, Neuromancer, The Doomsday Book and The
Diamond Age (I keep saying I'm going to read Ender's
Game and A Deepness in the Sky, but never seem to get
around to them. ^_^). I'm not surprised that it was
nominated, but I am pretty surprised that it actually
won. ^_^
