Acceptance

Praise for ACCEPTANCE and the SOUTHERN REACH TRILOGY:

'I'm loving the Southern Reach Trilogy . . . Creepy and fascinating' Stephen King

'Hauntingly weird and brilliantly new . . . These are contemporary masterpieces and career-defining novels' Adam Robert, Books of the Year, Guardian

'This trilogy is a modern mycological masterpiece . . . Remarkable . . . Tense, eerie and unsettling . . . VanderMeer writes much better prose than Poe ever did . . . This is genuinely potent and dream-haunting writing. VanderMeer has arrived' Guardian

'A teeming science fiction that draws on Conrad and Lovecraft alike . . . "Annihilation" shows signs of being the novel that will allow VanderMeer to break through to a new and larger audience' Sunday Telegraph

'A lasting monument to the uncanny . . . You find yourself afraid to turn the page' Guardian

'VanderMeer's novel is a psycho-geographical tour de force, channelling Ballard and Lovecraft to instil the reader with a deep, delicious unease' Financial Times

'Astonishing, frightening, spectacular . . . The imaginative daring and reach with which VanderMeer has invented and executed a concept such as Area X is breathtaking . . . Powerful and echoing' New Statesman

'Immersive, insightful and often deeply bloody creepy, this is a startlingly good novel . . . A major work' SFX Magazine

'A tense and chilling psychological thriller about an unravelling expedition and the strangeness within us. A little Kubrick, a lot of Lovecraft, the novel builds with an unbearable tension and claustrophobic dread that lingers long afterwards. I loved it' Lauren Beukes

'Original and beautiful, maddening and magnificent' Warren Ellis
