George R.R. Martin After Losing to Harry Potter: J.K. Rowling May Have “Billions of dollars and my Hugo” but She Can Never Have Readers Like Mine
George R.R. Martin could not accept his defeat after Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling won at the 2001 Hugo Awards. His A Storm of Swords novel lost to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, both published in 2000. His fans were also upset about this, but no one was more bitter than the author himself.
Martin, who rose to fame for writing A Song of Ice and Fire series, has spoken about this in the past a couple of times. He could never let go of the fact that Rowling’s book was chosen over his work, but little did he know that this would happen twice with his two other novels.
