Eversion is a superb, original Gothic SF novel unlike anything else you've read. Strap in for the smartest, most mind-bending, edge-of-the-seat read of 2022.
Eversion is a superb, original Gothic SF novel. A small group of intrepid explorers are in search of a remote and mysterious artefact. It's a well-funded expedition, well organised, which is lucky as they're sailing north of Bergen on the schooner Demeter, searching for a narrow inlet which will lead them to a vast uncharted lake - and their goal --
Until disaster strikes.
Doctor Silas Coade wakes from disturbing dreams, on the steamship Demeter, in pursuit of an extraordinary find almost too incredible and too strange to believe, secreted within a lagoon in the icy inlets of Patagonia. But as they come in sight of their prize he and the crew see they are not the first to come so far: there is a wreck ahead, and whatever ruined it may threaten them as well--
Shaking off his nightmares, Doctor Silas Coade joins his fellow exploders on the deck of the zeppelin Demeter and realises something has already gone dangerously wrong with their mission. If any of them are to survive, then he will have to take the exploration - and their lives - into his own hands . . .
Praise for Alastair Reynolds:
'An adroit and fast-paced blend of space opera and police procedural, original and exciting' George R. R. Martin on Aurora Rising
'The most enjoyable book Reynolds has ever written' SFX on Revenger
'The span here is mind-boggling, cosmos-spanning concepts, a breath-taking journey' Good Book Guide on Chasm City
'[A] wonderfully entertaining puzzle wrapped inside an adventure story' The Guardian on Eversion
'A fabulous and satisfying novel' SF Crowsnest on Revenger
'An excellent adventure that's sure to keep readers on their toes' Publishers Weekly on Revenger
'A fun, character focused bottle mystery that shifts settings like a chameleon walking across a rainbow carpet' The Quill to Live on Eversion
'Entertaining and thought-provoking' Locus on Revelation Space
'Pirates in space, full of peril and high-jinks . . . This is a novel that's elegantly plotted, full of surprises and, as first time round, rip-roaring fun' SFX on Revenger
'Reynolds is one of the modern masters of science fiction' Starburst
'This is a story to break hearts and make you turn pages. It's great stuff; pick it up, you'll want to know what happens next' SF&F Reviews on Century Rain
'Much of the fun of these books comes from the construction of a far, far-future space-opera . . . the mapping of Age of Sail tropes onto space travel is just the start . . . Nevertheless, at the centre of this baroque masquerade par
