The Greece fiction awards
Four awards for English-language fiction set in Greece. Comedy, romance, literary fiction, historical fiction. Publisher submitted or reader nominated. Voted on by two communities.
The Aristofanis Award
The novel set in Greece that made you laugh and want to book a flight. Where the landscape, the culture, and the people are active participants in everything that goes wrong and wonderfully right.
The Sofocles Award
The book set in Greece that broke your heart or showed you something true and difficult about the human condition.
The Herodotus Award
Set in ancient, Byzantine, or modern historical Greece. The book that makes the past feel present and gives flesh and voice to people whose history was recorded only as names and dates.
The Aphrodite Award
The book set in Greece that made you fall in love — with the characters, the landscape, and the idea of living differently.
Publishers submit directly. Readers nominate indie authors using a verified Amazon review of at least 50 words.
Submissions open October 1, 2026.
