DragonCon, the pop culture, fantasy, sci-fi, and gaming convention based in Atlanta, has announced their round of 2017 nominations for the coveted Dragon Awards. Previous winners include Terry Pratchett, Naomi Novik, and Neil Gaiman.
This year a whopping five Inkshares authors have been nominated! These talented authors will be representing Inkshares in their respective categories and we couldn't be more proud!
Best Horror Novel:
A God in the Shed by JF Dubeau
In the quaint farm village of Saint-Ferdinand, an ancient evil lurks—threatening to destroy the town and its residents.
“It’s Stephen King’s It meets Jeepers Creepers...I’d definitely recommend A God in the Shed to readers of dark fantasy, and of course, horror. It’s a great mix of fresh and established concepts and could signal the arrival of a bold new voice in the world of fiction.”—Fantasy Faction
Best SciFi Novel:
Rise by Brian Guthrie
In Rise, four strangers must unite to save a world shattered in the pursuit of utopia.
"Rise creates an interesting dystopian world that mixes science fiction and elements of fantasy. The nature of the world also gives it some elements of space opera, with conflict between the shells working much in the same way as a conflict between different planets would in other stories." —Cultured Vultures
Space Tripping by Patrick Edwards
Space Tripping follows Chuck, a trucker who never thought too deeply about whether aliens existed—until an intergalactic transport pilot drunkenly crashes on Earth and tries to steal his truck.
"A funny, imaginative sci-fi misadventure that channels Douglas Adams with its surreal universe and the manic creatures who inhabit it." — Zac Thompson, author of Weaponized, VICE contributor and co-creator of The Dregs comic
Best YA Novel:
It’s All Fun and Games by Dave Barrett
In It’s All Fun and Games, six high school friends spend their weekends LARPing, but not long after a new quest begins the friends discover that something has gone terribly wrong.
"What would I do if my favorite fantasy world came to life? It’s a question every nerd has asked him or herself, and Dave Barrett answers it in a tremendously fun, well-written story of swords, sorcery, and survival." — Dan Casey, Senior Editor of Nerdist
Best Apocalyptic Novel:
The Seventh Age: Dawn by Rick Heinz
The Seventh Age: Dawn explores the consequences of bringing ancient magic into the contemporary world — will it mean untold wonders or will it unleash hell on earth?
"Visceral, funny, relentless, and clever. A mix of Jim Butcher and Terry Pratchett — an urban fantasy tale with real bite." — Scott Kenemore, national bestselling author of Zombie, Ohio and The Grand Hotel
