After Moxyland came out, any South African who’d read it knew Lauren Beukes was awesome, but it’s still great to know that the rest of the world is realising that too – her uber-edgy urban fantasy novel Zoo City has now been shortlisted for the prestigious Arthur C. Clarke award! Woohoo! Congratulations Lauren!
This comes after being shortlisted for the British Science Fiction Award not to mention winning the Red Tentacle Award. I’m feeling incredibly patriotic all of a sudden.
To celebrate, Angry Robot is selling the Zoo City eBook for just £1! The offer will stand until midday (GMT) on Monday 7th March, and all eBooks sold at the Angry Robot store are DRM-free. So don’t hang around here, go and get one now!
That’s great!
Yeah, it’s pretty awesome!
Sorry that your comment was published late – it ended up in the spam folder. Good thing I checked; WordPress is being a bit iffy.
Thanks for letting me know about this.
Plus when went to checkout, it was showing at 85p.
My pleasure! Nice that you could get it for 85p too. Hope you enjoy it, it’s a weird, cool read.
