Audie Award for Fiction

Annual literary award

The Audie Award for Fiction is one of the Audie Awards presented annually by the Audio Publishers Association (APA). It awards excellence in narration, production, and content for a fiction audiobook released in a given year, typically to the exclusion of speculative fiction. Before 2008 the award was given as the Audie Award for Unabridged Fiction. It has been awarded since 1996.
