Which 2001 Hugo Award for Best Novel did J.K. Rowling win for Harry Potter?

J.K. Rowling won the 2001 Hugo Award for Best Novel for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The award recognized the fourth novel in her series, which was published in the United Kingdom in 2000 and in the United States in 2000.

The Hugo Awards are presented by the World Science Fiction Society and are among the best-known honors in science fiction and fantasy. Goblet of Fire competed against works including A Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin and The Reality Dysfunction by Peter F. Hamilton.

This award is sometimes confused with Rowling’s other major honors, such as the Carnegie Medal nomination for Philosopher’s Stone or the British Book Awards. Goblet of Fire was also notable within the series because it introduced the Triwizard Tournament, expanded the wizarding world beyond Britain, and marked the return of Voldemort to physical form.
