2007 Hugo Trophy

“The Company They Keep: C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien as Writers in Community” by Diana Glyer has been nominated for a 2008 Hugo Award in the “Best Related Book” category. The book explores how the support and collaboration of the group known as the Inklings, of which J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis were both members, influenced The Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia and other works. The Hugo Awards are for excellence in the field of science fiction and fantasy. They were first awarded in 1953, and have been awarded every year since 1955. Thanks to board member JRandomRohirrim for the tip! [Read More] [Purchase the Book]
