2026 Longlist Ockham Awards Jann Medlicott Acorn Longlist for Fiction
The alpacas are nervous. Accusations are flying about a rigged election, a mysterious illness is spreading, the Alpaca News is being censored by higher powers, and skullduggery is threatening the Breeders Showcase.
Amidst a mass of self-interested parties, a forthright vet and a diplomatic engineer strive to protect the herds and restore democracy.
By turns vital, farcical, heartbreaking and chilling, the much-anticipated alpaca novel by award-winning writer Duncan Sarkies is a wild and tender leap โ or, more accurately, pronk โ into the heart of alpaca breeding, and a snapshot of a world at a crossroads.
