Mary Doria Russell now has two titles on the trade paperback list. Once again, figures were close, so we had a four-way tie. The new runner-up is Riddlemaster: The Complete Trilogy by Patricia A. McKillip. We had 69 nominees, to 67 last month.

The latest ‘‘Babylon 5’’ dominates the media list. New runner-up: Babylon 5: Season 5: The Wheel of Fire by Jane Killick (Del Rey). We had 44 nominees, down from 53.
