The Seraph Award is a literary award für speculative fiction written in German. It is given annually during Leipzig Book Fair. The award is organized and overseen by the Phantastische Akademie, located in Mannheim, Germany.

Award

In the category "Best Novel", all works published within the current calendar year are eligible.

The second category is the "Best Debut Novel". Attached to this category is a prize money of 2000 Euros. From 2012 to 2015, the award was sponsored largely by Stadtwerke Leipzig. Since 2016, Leipzig Book Fair has been the main sponsor. The same year, a third category was created, awarding the best self-published novel ("Best Indie").
