I'm reading all the Mythopoeic winners these days and came across "Digger" by Ursula Vernon. Looking at the Mythopoeic Society's page, vols. 1-6, i.e., the whole series won. In the Award page, vol 1 is listed as the winner. Since there's an Omnibus edition containing all six volumes which came out the same year as its award, would it make sense to label the Omnibus as the winner of the award rather than vol. 1?

Thanks!

That is an excellent idea. I didn't know there was an omnibus at that time but that will clean things up nicely. I'm on it. Thanks, great catch!
