Arthur C Clarke Award shortlist
03/02/2005 . Source: Jessica Martin 
The shortlist for the 2005 Arthur C Clarke Award is announced. River of Gods - Ian McDonald: Simon & Schuster
Iron Council - China Mieville: Macmillan
Cloud Atlas - David Mitchell: Sceptre
Market Forces - Richard Morgan: Gollancz
The Time Traveler's Wife - Audrey Niffenegger: Cape
The System of the World - Neal Stephenson: Heinemann
The winner will be announced in a ceremony at the English Heritage
Lecture Theatre on Wednesday 11th May 2005. The winner will receive an
engraved bookend and a cheque for £2005.
The judges for this year's award are: Carol Ann Kerry Green and Mark
Greener for the BSFA, Mark Bould and Justina Robson for the
Foundation, and Dave Palmer for the Science Museum.
The Nest's choice for this would be Market Forces, but our more cynical side reckons that the .lit lover's The Time Traveler's Wife (much touted by mainstream 'respectable' reviewers as 'it's not science fiction because it's good') has to be a hot favourite for this award.
