Mythopoeic Awards Winners

Winners of the Mythopoeic Awards for 1999 were announced at Mythcon XXX/Bree Moot 4 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on August 1st.

Fantasy Award for Adult Literature
Stardust, Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess (DC Vertigo)

Fantasy Award for Children's Literature

Scholarship Award in Inkling Studies
C. S. Lewis: A Companion & Guide, Walter Hooper (HarperSanFrancisco 1996)

Scholarship Award in Myth and Fantasy Studies
A Century of Welsh Myth in Children's Literature, Donna R. White (Greenwood Publishing Group)

The awards are given by The Mythopoeic Society, a nonprofit educational organization of readers, scholars, and fans of the works of the Inklings (J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Charles Williams) and of the related genres of myth and fantasy studies. The awards are small statuettes of a seated lion (intended to evoke thoughts of, but not officially named after, Aslan from C.S. Lewis's Narnian books), inscribed with a plaque on the base.

The complete list of nominations is here.
