Black Arrow/RebelFire Are Prometheus Finalists

The Libertarian Futurist Society has announced finalists for this year’s Prometheus Awards, which will be presented during the World Science Fiction Convention August 23-27 in Anaheim, Calif.

The Prometheus finalists for Best Novel recognize pro-freedom novels published last year:
* Chainfire, by Terry Goodkind (TOR Books)
* Learning the World, by Ken MacLeod (TOR)
* 47, by Walter Mosley (Little, Brown and Company)
* The Hidden Family, by Charles Stross (TOR)
* The Black Arrow, by Vin Suprynowicz (Mountain Media)
* RebelFire: Out of the Gray Zone, by Claire Wolfe and Aaron Zelman (RebelFire Press)

I'm glad to see that two of my favorite books made the list. Congratulations, Vin, Aaron and Claire. You folks deserve widespread recognition and gratitude.

And the convention is in Anaheim, which is less than an hour from me. Maybe I'll go.

Then again, I probably won't.

What an oxymoron.
