The (lack of) interest in our inaugural RAFO Awards has been, I must say, a little disappointing, resulting in rather few votes and some winners that not everyone will be happy with (including the one for best review ). But then, you know what to do to prevent that from happening next time! Besides, awards are boring if everyone agrees about who the winner should be, yes? The admins did not vote, by the way, just to be clear, though perhaps next time we should.
Why didn't you vote?
Without any further ado, then, the winners of our RAFO Awards:
Book Awards:
Book of the RAFO Year
Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson - The Gathering Storm.
Not a surprise, just very, very sad.
Best Fantasy
Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson - The Gathering Storm.
Yeah.
Best Other Literature
A.S. Byatt - The Children's Book.
Excellent.
Best Non-Fiction
Umberto Eco - The Infinity of Lists.
Again, I like this.
Best Author Blog
Stephen Fry
He IS lovely.
Most Anticipated Book
Robert Jordan & Brandon Sanderson - A Memory of Light.
*sigh*
Community Awards:
Best book review
Legolas' Twilight review.

The Count of Monte Cristo.
It's not the first time I've disagreed with the majority.
