World Fantasy Awards

Congratulations to client Ekaterina Sedia AKA squirrel_monkey for Paper Cities winning the World Fantasy Award for Best Anthology.

“Original genre anthologies have been a mixed bag in recent years, with an overreliance on established household names at the expense of nurturing new talent. At times, too restrictive themes have tended to create a sense of sameness. Not so with urban fantasy. As Jess Nevins points out in his excellent introduction, urban fantasy is “a mode of storytelling rather than a subgenre, and as such accommodates a variety of themes and approaches.” This idea of variety, along with a willingness to publish new and established writers alike, helps explain the considerable appeal of this ambitious and entertaining anthology.” –Jeff Vandermeer (in Publishers Weekly)

And congratulations to the winners in all the other categories.
