Along with the Nebula Awards, the Hugo Awards are some of the best-known and most prestigious honors in the realms of science fiction and fantasy. The most recent batch of Hugo trophies was handed out last night at Anticipation, the 67th Worldcon. I usually wind up hearing about who won what after the fact, but since announcements this year went out via Twitter, I kept up with who was walking away with a retro rocket-shaped trophy in real time.

Last year, I watched and read (and loved) some stuff that wound up being honored at the ceremony. And, even more awesome, a lot of that is stuff you can experience right now, for free (or almost free). So if, for example, you’re currently laid up with a broken leg, you can get award-winning goodness delivered to you in the comfort of your own home instantly and on the cheap.
