The 76th World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon), also known as Worldcon 76 in San Jose, was held on 16–20 August 2018 in San Jose, California, United States.[1]
Worldcon 76, the 76th World Science Fiction Convention
The World Science Fiction Society administers and presents the Hugo Awards,[3] the oldest and most noteworthy award for science fiction. Selection of the recipients is by vote of the Worldcon members. Categories include novels and short fiction, artwork, dramatic presentations, and various professional and fandom activities.[3][4]
Not enough words published since last appearance in this category. The administrators ruled that the Best Series category presented in 2017 as a special category was effectively the same category as this Best Series category, and therefore the rules for re-eligibility applied.
