The Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Association (CSFFA) has revealed the 2016 Aurora Award winners.
The awards were presented at this year’s “Canvention” event which was held in Calgary, Alberta. Below, we’ve posted the full list of winners.
Here’s more from the organization’s website: “The Aurora Awards are kind of like the Peoples Choice awards for Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror, except just for Canadians. There are twelve categories, some of them for literary works, and some of them for amateur or what we call Fan works. All Canadians may nominate or vote for the awards. Each year’s awards are for original works or activites done by Canadians in the previous calendar year.” (via Tor.com)
