Don't we all love stories like this, where someone wins a prestigious award his or her first time out? Well, American Ann Leckie won this year's Hugo Award for best novel with her debut work,
Ancillary Justice. It's the first in a planned trilogy and has already won the Nebula, Locus, British Science Fiction Association, and Arthur C. Clarke awards. The Hugos were announced at the 72nd World Science Fiction Convention in London. A few of the other winners were Charles Stross for best novella (
Equoid) and Mary Robinette Kowal for best novelette (
The Lady Astronaut of Mars):
