Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer
5.0

In a sentence – an introspection on one of the strangest worlds in worlds in fiction.

Probably more recommended to fans of literary fiction and magical realism than pure Sci Fi/Horror enthusiast. Don’t expect a thrilling apocalyptic novel from this one but instead be ready to have your ideas on reality, spun round, probed and questioned.

For the first time ever I agree with the Daily Mail and their blurb– “Annihilation is so disquietingly strange as to defy summarisation. Read it”

Recommended to those who read and enjoyed Vandameer’s Borne.
