The Los Angeles Times Book Prizes winners were announced April 20.

Tananarive Due’s The Reformatory: A Novel won the Science Fiction, Fantasy & Speculative Fiction category, a book the Times describes as “part horror, part historical fiction in its examination of life under Jim Crow law in the South.”

The other finalists in the category were:

• Daniel Kraus, Whalefall
• Victor LaValle, Lone Women: A Novel
• V. E. Schwab, The Fragile Threads of Power
• E. Lily Yu, Jewel Box: Stories

Two other works of genre interest won awards: the Graphic Novel/Comics category, Emily Carroll, for A Guest in the House; and in the Young Adult category, Amber McBride for Gone Wolf.
