Here is the 2009 Nebula Awards Final Ballot and a great list it is indeed! How about “Divining Light,” one of the nominations for the novelette division by Ted Kosmatka! wow, that would be my choice, but it would be a hard pick. We read that story on episodes 145 to 147 of Beam Me Up and even reading it, freaked me out. Plus Paolo's The Windup Girl ! Whooooooooohooooooo great mix this year!
