Reviews of Sunburst Award Winners

This is a list of Sunburst Award for Canadian Literature of the Fantastic winners (in the adult category, once the categories were distinguished), including ratings for those books that I've read and links to reviews where I've written one. This is a juried award given to the best speculative fiction novel or book-length collection by a Canadian author.

The Sunburst Award has been on hiatus since 2021 due to the pandemic.
