15th Annual Readers' Award Results
It's time to tell you the winners of Asimov's Science Fiction's Annual Readers' Award poll, which is now in its fifteenth year.
As always, these were your choices, the stories and artwork and
poetry that you--the readers--liked best out of all the stuff
we published in 2000. The readers were the only judges for this
particular award--no juries, no experts--and, as always, it's
intriguing to compare results with the Hugo and Nebula ballots,
as well as with the readers' poll conducted by Locus.. This year's winners, and runners-up, were:
