Tor.com Publishing's Fiction from 2015

2015 was a big year for Tor.com Publishing. On top of our long-established, award-winning short fiction program, Tor.com launched a new initiative to publish novellas and short novels. We’d like to take this opportunity to round up all the great fiction we got to publish this year.

We are tremendously proud of our authors, illustrators, and editors for creating such wonderful novellas, novelettes, short stories, graphic stories, and illustrations this year. We hope that you will nominate your favorite stories for the Hugos, Nebulas, and other upcoming awards which honor outstanding works of science fiction, fantasy, and horror—but most of all, we hope that you have enjoyed reading these works as much as we have!
