Der Parsec Award ist ein jährlich vergebener Literaturpreis, der für Podcasts und deren Autoren aus dem Bereich der Science-Fiction und der spekulativen Literatur im Allgemeinen verliehen wird. Der Preis wurde 2006 von Mur Lafferty, Michael R. Mennenga und Tracy Hickman mit Unterstützung von Farpoint Media initiiert und im gleichen Jahr erstmals vergeben. Nominierungen können durch jeden Podcast-Hörer erfolgen, aus den Nominierungen wird dann durch das Organisationskomitee eine Vorauswahl getroffen, über die Finalisten und Sieger entscheidet eine unabhängige Jury. Die Zahl der Kategorien stieg von anfangs 9 auf 14 Kategorien im Jahr 2017. Die Preisverleihung findet am Labor-Day-Wochenende auf der Dragon*Con in Atlanta statt.
