Go nominate your favorite stuff in the Dragon Awards!

DANG, Y’ALL! It’s already Dragon Awards season! 😮 You’ve got until July 19th to nominate your favorite stuff – and you totally should, because it’s 100% fan-driven, which means YOU are the ones who control who wins. ☺️

If you’re not familiar with the Dragon Awards:

They’re bestowed by Dragon Con, one of the biggest cons in the US. Titles released between July 1, 2023 and June 30th, 2024 qualify for this year.

NOTE: You can only nominate a title in one category; if you nominate it in more than one, neither counts (which is why you’ll often see authors telling readers to nominate books in specific categories).

***

Here’s what I’m nominating this year (or considering, ‘cause some are tied right now).

BEST SCI-FI NOVEL:

The Queen’s Fixer  by Kacey Ezell Disquiet Gods  by Christopher Ruocchio

BEST FANTASY NOVEL (Including Paranormal):

Lord of a Shattered Land  by Howard Andrew Jones

BEST YA/MIDDLE GRADE NOVEL:

Death Lord Arcanist  by Shami Stovall

BEST ALTERNATE HISTORY NOVEL:

[ Idk, I haven’t read any this year. ]

BEST HORROR NOVEL:

[ Same as above. ]

BEST ILLUSTRATIVE BOOK COVER:

Beyond Enemies  (book by Marisa Wolf, cover by Sam Kennedy)

BEST COMIC BOOK:

[ Haven’t read any comics this year, either. ]

BEST SCI-FI or FANTASY TV SERIES:

One Piece  (Netflix)

BEST SCI-FI or FANTASY MOVIE:

Dune Part 2

BEST DIGITAL GAME:

Hell Divers II Stellar Blade

BEST TABLE-TOP GAME:

***

ALSO, if you’re wondering which of our titles qualify:

BEST SCI-FI NOVEL:

The Thermopylae Protocol  (Gordian Division #6) by David Weber and Jacob Holo

BEST FANTASY NOVEL:

I Power Up with Every Monster Girl I Defeat!  (Monster Girl Tamer #1) by Edie Skye and H.P. Holo

*Is it actually the best fantasy novel we’ve written this year? No, that’s Blood Knight: Vampire Slayer, but I think it’d be hilarious to be nominated alongside all the Vry Serious Fantasy.

BEST ILLUSTRATIVE BOOK COVER:

Blood Knight: Vampire Slayer  (book by Edie Skye, cover art by Yanai)

Now, GO FORTH AND VOTE! 😄
