Mythopoeic Awards
Posted: Fri Mar 13, 2026 2:30 am
I'm curious if anyone has read any Mythopoeic award winning or nominated books and what you thought of them?
If you're not familiar, they are awarded by the Mythopoeic Society to fiction and non-fiction that "exemplify the spirit of the Inklings". (and we all know who was an Inkling, hence why I am posting here)
I have feelings/opinions on book awards, which I won't get into, but the Mythopoeic are interesting to me because I find I often quite like their nominated books and they very much have a different feel from a lot of other fantasy, so I like to pay attention to them.
Here is a list of the 2025 awards and nominees, if you're interested: https://www.mythsoc.org/awards/awards-2025.htm
here is a description of the categories: https://www.mythsoc.org/news/news-2026-01-04.htm
