The Arthur C. Clarke Award 2023 Winner

It is our great pleasure to confirm Venomous Lumpsucker by Ned Beauman as the winner of the Arthur C. Clarke Award 2023.

Set in the strange landscapes of the 2030s, this gloriously plotted and darkly funny literary thriller sees a troubled conservationist and a disreputable mining executive team up to investigate a vile attack on the biobanks preserving remnants of species dying of extinction.

 

“A biting satire; twisted, dark and radical, but remarkably accessible, endlessly inventive and hilarious.”

Dr Andrew M. Butler, Chair of Judges
