LoveReading Says
August 2015 Series of the Month.
The highly anticipated third volume of the haunting, disturbing and evocative Southern Reach trilogy. In this last instalment of the Southern Reach Trilogy, the mysteries of Area X may have been solved, but their consequences and implications are no less profound - or terrifying. I am an absolute sucker both for quest-through-the-wilderness tales, and for post-apocalyptic landscapes. Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach trilogy delivers both, in creepily brilliant and utterly unforgettable style. In this the second volume of the Southern Reach Trilogy, questions are answered, stakes are raised, and mysteries are deepened. It all gets progressively more sinister and alien and uncanny and disastrous - I'm not sure I've read a trilogy which scared me, and stayed with me so much, for years. A slice of dreamily written, haunting literary science fiction flows through the whole trilogy. ~ Alison Flood

Acceptance Synopsis
SPECIAL TENTH ANNIVERSARY EDITION
The New York Times bestselling third installment of Jeff VanderMeer's wildly popular Southern Reach Trilogy.
It is winter in Area X, the mysterious wilderness that has defied explanation for thirty years, rebuffing expedition after expedition, refusing to reveal its secrets. As Area X expands, the agency tasked with investigating and overseeing it--the Southern Reach--has collapsed in on itself in confusion. Now one last, desperate team crosses the border, determined to reach a remote island that may hold the answers they've been seeking. If they fail, the outer world is in peril.
Meanwhile,
Acceptance tunnels ever deeper into the circumstances surrounding the creation of Area X--what initiated this unnatural upheaval? Among the many who have tried, who has gotten close to understanding Area X--and who may have been corrupted by it? In this last installment of Jeff VanderMeer's
Southern Reach Trilogy, the mysteries of Area X may be solved, but their consequences and implications are no less profound--or terrifying.
