The Atorox Award for best Finnish sf short story published last year was announced at Finncon last weekend. The winner, for the third time, was Anne Leinonen for her short story Nahat (“Skins”), published in the Portti magazine.
This was a great year for Anne: she also took the second prize with Sanojen mahti (“The might of words”). The top three was:
- Anne Leinonen: Nahat (Portti 3/10)
- Anne Leinonen: Sanojen mahti (Portti 1/10)
- Hanne Martelius: Stuttgart ennen talvea (Portti 2/10)
In addition to Anne taking the top places, the Portti magazine ruled supreme this year. Four of the top-5 stories were published by Portti.
Congratulations, Anne and all the other top-placing candidates!
The Atorox Award is voted by members of the Finnish fandom from a longlist of stories selected by a pre-selection jury. The award is given by the Turku Science Fiction Society.
