Burn won the 2007 Nebula for Best Novella.
"The warm humanity and rural sympathies of this affectionate winsome short novel will make many recall Ray Bradbury at his best" -- From Booklist
"James patrick Kelly's fine new short novel Burn combines maturity with the adventurous spirit of youth, as though the Mark Twain of Huckleberry Finn had come back with a yen to write science fiction." -- Faren Miller, Locus
