Locus Online is a great site. Looking at the link you posted reminded me of how long it's been since I've stopped reading new Science Fiction novels. I only recognize a couple of names on that list. The good news is I still have plenty of classic SF books to read.
"My life is spent in one long effort to escape from the commonplace of existence."
-Sherlock Holmes

"You know, just once I'd like to meet an alien menace that wasn't immune to bullets."
-Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart

"There's a horror movie called Alien? That's really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you!"
-The Doctor

"Before Man goes to the stars he should learn how to live on Earth."
-Clifford D. Simak

Thanks for the link, MetalDog.  O0

Bookmarked.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

Quite welcome, Greybriar.  I picked it off of George R. R. Martin's Not A Blog page.

The Locus list is filled with literary SF.  Any list of 2015 that leaves off Butcher's Aeronaut's Windlass is lame.
Aeronaut's Windless got superb reviews from everyone.  It has a huge number of positive recommendations from Amazon Readers.   It was released in 2015.  It has been a monster seller.  Locus ignores it.
