John Clute is a Canadian born author and critic who lives in Britain.
His articles on science fiction have appeared in various publications since the 1970s and are erudite and witty, though some readers have complained that they are also rendered incomprehensible by what Clute himself describes as their "studiously flamboyant obscurities" - in other words, the use of complex and obscure phrases.
He is a co-editor of The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction (with Peter Nicholls) and of The Encyclopedia of Fantasy (with John Grant ).
His first novel Appleseed was published in 2001, followed by another, Earth Bound.
