Helsinki Science Fiction Society Awards
August 18th, 2007 by Editors
Presented by
The Helsinki Science Fiction Society
Method
A jury appointed by the HSFS. The juries may be separate for the two awards.
Eligibility
The Tähtivaeltaja Award is for works of science fiction. Both translations into Finnish and original works are eligible.
The Tähtifantasia Award is for translated fantasy works only (this is to avoid overlap with an existing award, Kuvastaja, which is presented (although not by HSFS) to original Finnish fantasy works).
Both awards are for “books” (or rather for a Finnish word that translates as “books”) so anthologies, collections and single-book short fiction works are all eligible. Comics, graphic novels and non-fiction are not eligible.
Categories
- Science Fiction Book (Tähtivaeltaja Award)
