       PRAISE FOR THE SOUTHERN REACH TRILOGY

      ‘A tense and chilling psychological thriller about an unravelling expedition and the strangeness within us. A little Kubrick, a lot of Lovecraft, [Annihilation] builds with an unbearable tension and claustrophobic dread that lingers long afterwards’

      LAUREN BEUKES, author of The Shining Girls

      ‘A lasting monument to the uncanny … you find yourself afraid to turn the page … We are less than 200 pages in to the Southern Reach Trilogy … and already home is a distant memory’

      SIMON INGS, Guardian

      ‘Annihilation owes much to the explorations of psycho-geographical landscapes in early J. G. Ballard and also to the work of the old masters of weird fiction such as H. P. Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgson, with their love of nameless horrors haunting liminal realms. VanderMeer synthesises these influences to create a tale with a deliciously creepy atmosphere of dread’

      JAMES LOVEGROVE, Financial Times

      ‘Immersive, insightful and often deeply bloody creepy, this is a startlingly good novel. If the sequels live up to it, then the Southern Reach series will be a major work’

      WILL SALMON, SFX Magazine

      ‘A clear triumph for VanderMeer, [who] has suddenly transcended genre with a compelling, elegant and existential story of far broader appeal … A novel whose world is built seamlessly and whose symbols are rich and dark’

      LYDIA MILLET, LA Times

      ‘A teeming science fiction that draws on Conrad and Lovecraft alike … The writing itself has a clarity that makes the abundancy of the setting more powerful’

      PAUL KINCAID, Sunday Telegraph
