Maiju Ihalainen accepting the award at Worldcon in Helsinki 2017.
The Atorox Award (Finnish: Atorox-palkinto, Swedish: Atoroxpriset) 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 award is given by the Turku Science Fiction Society but the winner is selected by representatives of the entire Finnish fandom. It has been awarded annually since 1983.[1] Johanna Sinisalo has been given the Atorox Award seven times, more times than any other writer.[2]
