The longlist for the fifth annual Doncaster Book Awards has been announced and Eoin’s novel Airman is one of the nominees.
Other authors on the list include: Darren Shan, Robert Muchamore and Charlie Fletcher.
Last year (2007-2008), the Doncaster Book Award was won by Derek Landy’s Skulduggery Pleasant.
So get on over to the site and write a review!
Great stuff, it is a cool list, and great to know this is happening just down the road. Some how Doncaster seems a lot more accessible than any London based award.
Airman is a fantastic book, and I agree with Richard Hanks that the list is indeed cool – but if Colfer doesn´t win I will be pretty damn mad!
ps. Eoin Colfer rules…!
