WINNER, 2024 Sidewise Award for Best Long-Form Alternate History
Sidewise Awards Winners
The Sidewise Awards have been presented annually since 1995 to recognize excellence in alternate historical fiction. In an alternate history, one or more past events are changed and the subsequent effects on history somehow described. This description may comprise the entire plotline of a novel, or it may just provide a brief background to a short story. Two awards are presented, usually at the World Science Fiction Convention. The Short-Form award is presented to a work under 60,000 words in length. The Long-Form award may be presented to a work longer than 60,000 words, including both novels and complete series. At their discretion, the judges may also elect to recognize an individual or work with a Special Achievement Award in recognition of works that were published prior to the award's inception. Please note: The Sideways Awards are dated according to the year of publication, not the year of the award. For example, the 2018 Awards were announced in August 2019 for works published in 2018. Listed below are nominees which are available at the Chicago library. For a complete list of long and short form nominees (as well as a substantial list of fiction in this genre generally), go to https://www.uchronia.net/sidewise/.
