Rob Hood exposes his Ditmar

Rob Hood won two Ditmars last week.

The first was as co-editor (with Robin Pen) of Daikaiju! Giant Monster Tales. It has just received yet another excellent review, this time in the Internet Review of Science Fiction (free access but registration required). Daikaiju! is one of the signature anthologies of the year. (How to buy it.)

The second was for criticism in a piece called “Divided Kingdom: King Kong vs. Godzilla” which now appears online (free, no registration required) on Rob’s own site, courtesy of BenBella Books. The essay originally appeared in King Kong is Back, edited by David Brin.

Go read.

Yay Rob!

Giant monsters would not be properly represented in the literary arts without you. You’ve also made Giant monsters represented in the literary arts properly.

Rob tells me that Daikaiju! has been reviewed many times now, and each reviewer picks out a different set of highlights among the stories. I guess this means that there’s something for every reader in Daikaiju!
