Real monsters lurk within and the cold night draws nearer in this year’s crop of Hugo Award winners! For the second year in a row, N.K. Jemisin took home the top honor for Best Novel. Her The Broken Earth trilogy is now two for two at the Hugos—and the final book, The Stone Sky, which comes out this month, will be eligible to win next year.
And while that one winter may not be coming anytime soon, A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. Martin was on hand to present the Hugo for Best Series to Lois McMaster Bujold for her Vorkosigan Saga.
The Hugo Awards, which annually honors the best of science fiction and fantasy, were presented Friday at the 75th World Science Fiction Convention in Helsinki, Finland. Take a look at the winners below!
