Digger

So Ursula Vernon's graphic novel/webcomic Digger won the Hugo the other day, ENTIRELY DESERVEDLY. (It was, actually, the category I cared about the most on this year's Hugo slate; if Digger didn't win I was going to be massively disappointed with the world.)

And of course this means I reread the entire thing over the course of the last few days. Just finished the reread now, the first time I've read it since it came to an end a year and a half ago, and gosh that is some quality stuff. Art, storytelling, characters, worldbuilding -- YEP. GOOD STUFF. *happy sigh*

Even if it means I am, once again, ridiculously behind on everything else on the internet.

TOTALLY WORTH IT. Digger is simply -- I cannot even. It is just FANTASTICALLY GOOD in every way. You should check it out!

:D I should check it out.

I was mostly disappointed by the Hugos- happy about Ken Liu's win, less happy about Remedial Chaos Theory and Embassytown losing. But I was actually at the Hugo Ceremony this year, for the first time, and it was awesome.
