13 Years Later, Brandon Sanderson's Only Hugo Award-Winning Fantasy Book Is More Important Than Ever To Read

In two decades of publishing novels, Mistbornauthor Brandon Sanderson has only one Hugo Award for writing, and it's for this fantasy story that's more exciting than ever to revisit. The Hugo Awards are among the most prestigious in speculative fiction writing, and they've been granted to legendary authors like Philip K. Dick, Frank Herbert, and Ursula K. Le Guin. While they've typically leaned more toward sci-fi in the past, fantasy books like Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire have managed to win. Out of all of Brandon Sanderson's books, he's only won once.
