Not all awards are created equal, but I'm using it as a way to find new books! I pulled all of the winners from the Arthur C. Clarke Awards, Locus Awards (Best Science Fiction, Best Fantasy, and Best Overall [retired]), Nebula Awards, and Hugo Awards.

Note: I do not believe that you can separate the art from the artist, especially when science fiction and fantasy originated as a form of resistance and political commentary, so I have done my best to omit authors that have caused harm. Please feel free to reach out to me if I have missed anyone.

If you want to see the full list of award winners, you can find them easily on their respective Wikipedia pages below:
