1966 - Best All-Time Series
A special mention about the 1966 Hugo Award for "Best All-Time Series".
This was won by Isaac Asimov for his "Foundation" Series.
This beat JRR Tolken for his "Lord of the Rings" and Robert A. Heinlein for "Future History" .
It's interesting to note that Tolken never won a Hugo award.
Seems that though the Hugos did not exclude fantasy, the award in the 60's was aimed more at
science fiction. Times and tastes have certainly changed.
Since then the Fantasy Genre has found greater acceptance.
