Bonus Reading: In Ascension

Martin MacInnes has won the Arthur C Clarke Award for his novel In Ascension. Read Harriet’s review here.

Dr Andrew M. Butler, the award’s Chair of Judges said, ‘In Ascension shows us, in the words of one judge, “vistas between the cellular and the cosmic.” It’s an intense trip and for once it’s a winner that is in the tradition of Clarke’s own novels.’

‘From the ocean floor to outer space, an astonishing novel examines our place in the universe’ Adam Roberts , The Guardian (UK).
