Catherine McIlwaine's book Tolkien: Maker of Middle-earth has been nominated for a Hugo Award in the category of "Best Art Book". It is wonderful to see this book getting the recognition it deserves - outside of the Tolkien specific circles that it is already so well known in.
The "Best Art Book" is a new category for Worldcon 2019, so it will be interesting to see how voting goes and if the category remains active in future years.
Best of luck to all of the nominations, it is an excellent list in all categories.
The 2019 Winner in this category was The Books of Earthsea: The Complete Illustrated Edition, illustrated by Charles Vess, written by Ursula K. Le Guin (Saga Press /Gollancz)
