Hugo Award - winning novels

Stirling recently posted a list of the Hugo Award novels of 1946 to 2002 on his weblog at http://www.livejournal.com/users/swestrup/ on Saturday May 8th, 2004 at 4:01AM:
I've added my rankings (out of 10) for those books that I have read, after his, or alone, so if you see only one ranking in square brackets after a novel, it's mine. However, a dash (-) after a ranking indicates one he has read and I have not. Mine are quite off-the-cuff. I'm feeling a little jaded right now so I didn't give anything a ten. In a more enthusiastic mood, you can add 3 to my "7" rankings.
