Sunburst Award

Last updated

The Sunburst Award for Canadian Literature of the Fantastic is an annual literary award given for a speculative fiction novel or a book-length collection, first awarded in 2001. A young adult category was created in 2008, to differentiate from adult works; and a short fiction award as well. The award has been on hiatus since 2020.

Contents

History

The name of the award comes from the title of the first novel by Phyllis Gotlieb, Sunburst (1964).

The first award was given out in 2001. The award consists of a cash prize (CA$ 1,000 for novel length work, and CA$ 500 for short stories) and a medallion. The winner is selected by jury; a new jury is struck each year.

On 2 June 2020, the Sunburst Award Society announced the awards were going on a hiatus due to impacts related to COVID-19. [1]
