The final wrap of PubFight 2008 Auctions is here.

BookNet Canada’s PubFight auction was held last night and with the added layer of historical reference for some of the players, equal parts fiery passion and measured restraint were in the mix.

Welcome Coach House and ECW! With your arrival, auctions are more than halfway done. In honour of this momentous occasion, we offer the PubFight Half-way Through Pre-season Meaningless Awards presentation. We know it’s an honour just to be nominated…

PubFight auction results from Scholastic and Simon and Schuster are in. Because of the outstanding auctions, we can’t tell you what the names of top titles are yet (I’m sure everyone will have a really hard time guessing just what that top Juvenile title is) but we can tell you the subjects and make you guess.

Take 8 young publishers, laptops of variable battery power, some beverages and a big list of promising fall titles to bid madly for and what have you got? Basically, the Young Publishers of Canada PubFight 2008/2009 Auction.
