Noreascon Four Is Delighted to Announce the Winners in 13 Categories for The
Embargoed until 12:01 a.m., 5 September 2004 BOSTON - Noreascon Four is delighted to announce the winners in 13 categories for the prestigious 2004 Hugo Awards for the best science fiction or fantasy stories of2003, and for related areas in fandom, art and dramatic presentation. The Hugo Awards were named for Hugo Gernsback, the founder of the pioneer magazine Amazing Stories. The award categories have changed over time, as the field of science fiction has grown and evolved. This year's honors mark the 50t11 time the Hugo Awards have been granted for exemplary work. Both the John W. Campbell Award for New Writers and the Special Noreascon Four Committee Award winners were announced as part of the Hugo Ceremony. The Special Committee Award honors contributions to the field of science fiction and fantasy which are not included in the currently granted Hugo Awards, but which are deemed exemplary and worthy of special recognition. This award was given to Erwin "Filthy Pierre" Strauss for his many, largely unrecognized gifts of his time, energy, and boundless enthusiasm to fandom. This year's voting included a larger than average number of late-joining supporting members who wished to vote but not attend the World Science Fiction Convention. Because of the mixed process of balloting (mail-in and online both), a statistically larger than average percentage of unsigned ballots or ballots without correct PIN information were rejected. Complete statistics for the preferential (or "Australian") ballot format used for Hugo (and Campbell) tabulation follow: 2004 Hugo Detailed Results Best Novel --- 789 ballots counted first place: Paladin of Souls by Lois Mc Master Bujold 230 231 241 280 330 Ilium by Dan Simmons 158 160 191 212 305 Singularity Sky by Charles Stross 133 133 170 191 Humans by Robert J. -
