The Turtledove Awards for 2017 were held in February and March 2018.

SargentHawk introduced new designs this year, retroactively applying them to the 2017 awards as well.

A new ASB category was introduced, for the many derivative timelines and other AH-fics of the A Song of Ice and Fire book series. This was done due to the large number of ASB timelines based on that particular piece of fiction in the preceding years. While ASOIAF-fic popularity lasts in the “based on fiction” writing projects, the category will serve to collect those and avoid cluttering the ASB category for “based on fiction” works.
