Description from Open Library
The Hugo Award for Best Novel is the premier honour for science fiction and fantasy novels, voted on annually by members of the World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon) since 1953. It is one of the field’s highest distinctions - past winners span foundational works from Ursula K. Le Guin and Isaac Asimov to N.K. Jemisin, who won three years running. This list collects the winning novels by year.
The Locus Awards are voted on each year by the readers of Locus, the magazine of the science fiction and fantasy field, which makes them one of the best guides to the books readers themselves have loved most. The Best Fantasy Novel award was first given in 1978, to Tolkien’s The Silmarillion, and its winners since include Ursula K. Le Guin, four volumes of George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire, Neil Gaiman, China Miéville and N. K. Jemisin. This list collects the winning novels by year.
