Post Kindle Store Science Fiction & Fantasy Scorecard

This effort is an attempt to rank kindle store by both quality and availability for SF and Fantasy fans. The attached excel spreadsheet has links to locate an individual book in the kindle store for you.

The score is computed as a % of total Philip K Dick, Nebula, Hugo, Clarke, Locus, and World Fantasy awarded books (winners, short-list nominations) that are found in the store. There are 643 books in the spreadsheet to date.

For the curious, I have also ranked the authors with the following formula: +2 for every win, +1 for every short-list nomination. Here are the top 15 along with their score (novels category only).

20 Lois McMaster Bujold
20 Robert A. Heinlein
19 Robert Silverberg
14 Gene Wolfe
14 Orson Scott Card
13 David Brin
13 Ursula K. Le Guin
12 Isaac Asimov
12 Joe Haldeman
12 Poul Anderson
12 Robert J. Sawyer
11 Arthur C. Clarke
11 Connie Willis
11 Frederik Pohl
11 Greg Bear


Enjoy!

Score as of May 1 2010
32%

Trend: UP!
