Arthur C. Clarke Award - 2008


The Arthur C. Clarke Award was started in 1987 by a donation of £1000 from the author himself. This was later increased to £2001 to match his most famous novel to date - 2001: A Space Odyssey. The Award is given to outstanding science fiction, first published in the UK in the previous year. This year's shortlist consists of six books, all by UK-based authors. The winner will be announced on April 10th.
