Premios Hugo 2012

El pasado 2 de Septiembre se han anunciado los ganadores de los premios Hugo del año 2012 y aquí os pongo la lista de los galardonados de cada sección acompañada por la del resto de nominados. En cuanto a los premiados en si tengo ganas de leer la novela ganadora Entre Extraños de Jo Walton,  ya que visto los rivales a los que se enfrentaba supongo que estará bastante bien y que además también ha ganado el premio Nebula a la mejor novela del 2011. Al resto habrá que apuntarlos para leerlos según se vayan publicando (si es que algún día lo hacen) y de las otras categorías nada de decir principalmente por que a la mayor parte no los conozco de nada.  Como nota discordante decir que me parece mucho mejor el episodio de “The Girl Who Waited” de la serie de televisión del Doctor Who que el ganador “The Doctor’s Wife” por mucho que este escrita por Neil Gaiman, pero bueno tampoco es un mal episodio ni mucho menos.
