History

The awards were first announced in 2017, with recipients selected from books reviewed by Literary Titan. The Literary Titan Book Award is recognized outside its own platform, with coverage highlighting its role in celebrating diverse, high‑quality writing. [6] [7] [5] [8]

Criteria

Books are evaluated based on their inclusion of "complex characters, intricate worlds, and thought provoking themes", as well as the "ease with which the story is told". [9]

Awards are divided into Gold and Silver categories, with Gold signifying the highest level of distinction, while Silver recognizes works of high quality and impact. Awards are bestowed monthly and include a full book review, and the competition does not require membership to enter. [4]

Notable recipients

Per WP:LISTCRITERIA, this list includes only recipients who have an existing Wikipedia article.

Significance

The Literary Titan Awards have become a marker of achievement for independent and small press authors, while also attracting submissions from larger publishers. [4] [5]
