STAGE PRIZE

The winner of this stage will receive the book Voices of Vision: Creators of Science Fiction and Fantasy Speak.  An outstanding collection of conversations had with leading science fiction editors and authors since 1997.  "A Source of Innocent Merriment" focuses on such highly distinctive voices in speculative fiction as urban fantasist Charles de Lint, and "I Am Legend" targets genuine luminaries of the field, such as Samuel R. Delaney and Gene Wolfe. 

Standout interviews include those with 800-pound gorilla Harlan Ellison, displaying his usual cynicism about science fiction films and their fans, and perdurable grandmaster Jack Williamson, who explains how he has kept the creative fires burning since his first publication in 1928.  Another section takes note of comic book creators, with Sandman author Neil Gaiman leading the pack.  A must-read for devotees curious to see what makes their favorite authors tick.
