The SFWA has made public the final ballot for the 2008 Nebula Awards. Congratulations to Nalo Hopkinson, one of four Canadians on the longlist, who received the nod for her novel The New Moon's Arms.

This could be a good year for Nalo, as her debut novel Brown Girl in the Ring is also a candidate for the 2008 Canada Reads contest.

  • The New Moon's Arms by Nalo Hopkinson
  • Odyssey by Jack McDevitt
