Another Clarke tradition is roundup of reviews of the nominated novels that Niall used to post on Torque Control. That seems to have lapsed this year, so--with only a few hours until the award is given out this evening--here are some of the reviews I've been able to find.

I recall you reviewing THE KNIFE OF NEVER LETTING GO a while back and saying you were going to stick with Ness's series. Did you? I'd be very interested in your thoughts on THE ASK AND THE ANSWER and MONSTERS OF MEN.
I wrote briefly about The Ask and the Answer in a recent reading roundup last year. I read Monsters of Men last week (right now it's the only one of the Clarke nominees I've read, though I'm planning to read several others) and will probably write about it some time next week.
