Since 1985, the SFCD draws from the best German-language novel and the best German -language short story of the previous year. The price ( currently 1,000 each, - Euro per category) will be presented to the winners during the SFCD Annual Congress. The German science fiction price is thus the only prize awarded to SF literature in Germany.

A prize committee decides on the allocation of the German Science Fiction Prize. Every year, it has the task to read all the texts published in the previous calendar year and evaluate. Its operation is defined in the rules of procedure. Thus, the German science fiction price differs significantly from eg Kurd - Laßwitz price, as only here also lesser known texts of high quality have a chance to be appreciated.

The Committee currently consists of 10 members and is new every year together. Meanwhile, a grown over the years group of employees has formed. However, at any time other volunteers are recorded. You do not have to be members of the SFCD.
