The Hugo Awards✦
Travel through the years of science fiction and fantasy. Discover each literary winner, meet the finalists, and find your next remarkable book.
Literary categories, including shorter fiction, graphic stories, related works and series. Retro-Hugos are labelled separately; their year is the retrospective award year being honoured. Lodestar and Astounding are separate awards and are excluded.

About this archive & its sources
These are official final-ballot finalists and winners, rather than every preliminary nomination. Earlier years may have only winners recorded. Joint winners remain joint winners. Award years differ from publication years. Related works can include essays, websites and other formats as well as books.
Every work has a source citation. The bibliography includes works outside the science-fiction catalogue, so a catalogue link appears only when title and creator can be matched. An award for a series is distinguished from an award for one of its volumes.
