1984 Locus Award Nominees

Location: Unknown.

Comments: One side effect of award lists is placing stories into context by lining them up with other, contemporaneous;y published stories. And sometimes, in comparison, stories don't seem to hold up all that well. As an example, I would contrast David Brin's Startide Rising, this year's Best Science Fiction novel winner with Norman Spinrad's The Void Captain's Tale, which appears in the same category a few places down the list. Startide Rising is pretty much eactly what I would expect of mid-1980s science fiction - a dynamic story of a discovery by the human and dolphin crew of the starship Streaker and the galactic upheaval that ensues. The Void Captain's Tale, on the other hand, seems like a novel from the early 1970s, replete with sexual politics that seem drawn directly from the 1960s. That these two novels were published in the same year seems almost impossible, and yet there they are.

1984 Campbell Award Nominees

Location: Campbell Conference Awards Banquet at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas.

Comments: In 1984, the Campbell Award judges rectified their previous error by handing the Best Novel award to Gene Wolfe's Citadel of the Autarch, the stellar concluding volume of the magnificent Urth of the New Sun series. It seems almost criminal that the Campbell Award judges gave so little attention to the previous books in the series, with only Shadow of the Torturer getting any recognition at all, but at least they recognized the quality of Wolfe's achievement in the end.

Best Novel

Winner:

The Citadel of the Autarch by Gene Wolfe

Second Place:

The Birth of the People's Republic of Antarctica by John Calvin Batchelor

Third Place:

Tik-Tok by John Sladek

1984 Prometheus Award Nominees

Location: Unknown.

Comments: In 1984 Ray Bradbury's novel Fahrenheit 451 was honored by the Libertarian Futurist Society as a Hall of Fame selection for the Prometheus Awards. This seems to me to highlight one of the inherent tensions contained in the Prometheus Awards. Bradbury's novel is thought by many to express an anti-censorship theme (although Bradbury seems to have had different ideas), which is more or less in line with libertarian thought, but it is by no means a view that is exclusive to libertarians, and is held by large numbers of people who are not only not friendly to libertarians, they are actively hostile to them. But in order to have worthwhile honorees, the Prometheus Awards have to cast their net so broadly that they catch not only works of libertarian fiction, but works that are so tangentially related to libertarian fiction that the paucity of high quality work in the subgenre is revealed.

Best Novel

Winner:

The Rainbow Cadenza by J. Neil Schulman

Double Crossing by Erika Holzer

1984 Mythopoeic Award Nominees

Location: Unknown.

Comments: Although the Mythopoeic Society had an established track record of refusing to list the non-winning nominees for the Scholarship Award, they had always listed all of the non-winning nominees in the Fantasy Literature category. In 1984, for no particularly apparent reason, the Society opted not to supply outsiders with a list of also-ran nominees and only revealed the winning entry - Joy Chant's When Voiha Wakes. As has so often been the case when these sorts of curve balls are thrown in genre awards, I have no idea why the Mythopoeic Society chose to do this, and I suspect that I never will.

Best Adult Fantasy Literature

When Voiha Wakes by Joy Chant

1984 World Fantasy Nominees

Location: World Fantasy Convention, Ottowa, Ontario.

Comments: The 1984 World Fantasy Awards saw two developments. First, after deciding to stop publishing the names of the non-winning nominees for the Lifetime Achievement Award in 1983, the World Fantasy Awards decided to hand out a pile of Lifetime Achievement Awards rather than just one, as had been the previous practice. I'm not sure why they decided to make this change - perhaps the judges were concerned that some worthy nominees would pass away before they were recognized if they continued honoring just one nominee per year - but the decision resulted in five co-winners for the award this year.

Second, Tanith Lee blossomed into a force to be reckoned with in fantasy. She had already won a World Fantasy Award in 1983, but in this year not only did the author win another, but she was nominated for two more. It took the World Fantasy Awards several years to notice that women wrote excellent fantasy fiction, but once they did, the prodigious talent of women like Tanith Lee ensured that they would not be overlooked again.

1984 Hugo Award Finalists

Location: LAcon II in Anaheim, California.

Comments: In 1984 Return of the Jedi won the third Hugo Award in the Best Dramatic Presentation category for the Star Wars saga. Each of the first three Star Wars movies coasted to Hugo award victories in this category. But with this victory, the Star Wars saga's time in the spotlight was ended. Not only did none of the later-produced prequel movies not win any Hugo Awards, they weren't even nominated for any. This was partially the result of the increased quality of the competition faced by the movies, but it was also traceable to the fact that Lucas burned a lot of bridges with his many revisions of the original trilogy, as well as the generally poor level of storytelling represented by the prequel trilogy. There are few things sadder than seeing a strong story disintegrate into a mess, but that is what happened with Star Wars, and their history at the Hugo Awards reflects this dismal truth.

On a happier note, this is also the year that the best Semi-Prozine category was introduced, separating those magazines that turned a profit and paid their writers from the Fanzines that mostly do not do either of those things. Locus, the most prominent of the magazines that fit into the new category, promptly won the award, and it has dominated the category ever since.

1984 Nebula Award Nominees

Location: Queen Mary, Long Beach, California.

Comments: 1984 was a banner year for Greg Bear, who took home the Nebula Award for both the Best Novella and the Best Novelette. This year was also a great year for David Brin, who won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards for his Upilift novel Startide Rising.

Unfortunately, it wasn't such a banner year for women, as there were only four nominations out of twenty-five that went to works written by female authors. After making gains on the gender equity front through much of the 1970s, the push towards equality in the field of science fiction sadly seems to have stalled in the 1980s.
