Atorox prize

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Atorox prize is the oldest science fiction literature award in Finland. It is given annually to the best science fiction short story. The name Atorox comes from the works of Aarne Haapakoski (1904-1961), who was one of the first science fiction writers in Finland. The prize is given by the Turku Science Fiction Society but the winner is selected by representatives of the entire Finnish fandom.
