Spaceman Blues was nominated for best novel by both the Lambda Literary Awards and the Gaylactic Spectrum Awards .[1] The editors of Amazon.com named Liberation the best science fiction/fantasy book of 2008, saying it "combined the serious and the satirical in creating an unforgettable image of a future America beset by the collapse of the dollar and the specter of a new form of slavery."[2]
Slattery plays the fiddle and the banjo, and he lives outside New Haven, Connecticut with his family.[3]
