Fantasy Minute for January 15, 2006: Episode 133

Publishers Weekly has listed their Listen Up Awards for 2005. The winners in the Science Fiction/Fantasy section are: Terry Pratchett’s Thud!, read by Stephen Briggs, Ben Bova’s Mercury, read by Stefan Rudnicki, Arte Johnson, and Moira Quirk, and Douglas Adams’s The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: The Tertiary Phase, read by Adams, Simon Jones, Geoffrey McGivern, Susan Sheridan, and the rest of the cast.

To celebrate the release of Thomas Kidd’s book Kiddography, Budd Plant Comic Art will be given away three pieces of original Thomas Kidd art to be determined by a random drawing from people who order the book or enter on-line. Entries for the drawing begin on February 1 and will run through the end of April.

The Sci-Fi Channel has announced that it will be airing the Christopher Eccleston season of Dr. Who starting in March. Chris Roberson notes that they are using the slot that will be vacated by Battlestar Galactica.
