The Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Paperback or eBook Original was established in 1970.
The award honors the best mystery book that is initially printed as a paperback or eBook without a hardcover edition.[1] EBooks must be published by a reputable publisher, as determined by the Mystery Writers of America.[1] American authors' debut novels are not eligible for the award, though they are eligible for the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best First Novel.[1]
The Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Paperback Original winners are listed below.
