The Long List Anthology Volume 9 (Paperback). This item is unavailable.The Long List Anthology Volume 9 (Paperback)

Paperback. Every year, supporting members of WorldCon (one of the largest speculative fiction conventions on the planet) nominate their favorite stories first published during the previous year for the prestigious Hugo Awards, the top six most popular of which make the final ballot in each category. Those works that do not make the final ballot are colloquially referred to as "the long list." This anthology series aims to show those amazing works a little more of the spotlight and, hopefully, share them with even more readers who will love them as much as their nominators did. The Long List Anthology Volume 9 collects nineteen science fiction, fantasy, and horror stories from that extended nomination list by writers from all corners of the world, celebrating a diversity of themes and narrative styles. Between farmhand robots and time-spanning apartment buildings, wish-granting goddesses and zombie rappers, automaton armies and ominous portals, there's something for everyone in these pages.The stories included are: "Once Upon a Time at The Oakmont" by P.A.
