It's many years since I last voted on the BFS awards, simply because, at the time of voting, I've usually only read one (or less!) item in any category. My tbr pile is such that I'm always behind in reading stuff; I only read GRIN OF THE DARK after I'd bought THIEVING FEAR; I'd had GRIN... for over a year before reading it. Worth the wait though! | ||

I can't seem to find a BFS *official* list anywhere of the final nominations - only lists people have put on their blogs and forums, etc. Anyone know where I can find one? des | ||

Hi Des, It is under the news section of the main BFS site. I found it there after looking under awards too. | ||
