Anansi Boys Named Best Fantasy Novel

Locus magazine awarded Neil Gaiman’s Anansi Boys the Best Fantasy Novel award. The book was voted the winner by readers of the magazine, and the award was announed at a ceremony in Seattle at the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame, I didn’t even know such a thing existed.

Congrats to Neil Gaiman. The Toronto Star called it “remarkably funny.” I called it my favourite book of the year.
