After thirty years, the only human engagement with Area X--a
seemingly malevolent landscape surrounded by an invisible border
and mysteriously wiped clean of all signs of civilization--has been
a series of expeditions overseen by a government agency so secret
it has almost been forgotten: the Southern Reach. Following the
tumultuous twelfth expedition chronicled in "Annihilation," the
agency is in complete disarray.
John Rodrigues (aka "Control") is the Southern Reach's newly
appointed head. Working with a distrustful but desperate team, a
series of frustrating interrogations, a cache of hidden notes, and
hours of profoundly troubling video footage, Control begins to
penetrate the secrets of Area X. But with each discovery he must
confront disturbing truths about himself and the agency he's
pledged to serve.
In "Authority," the second volume of Jeff VanderMeer's Southern
Reach trilogy, Area X's most disturbing questions are answered . .
. but the answers are far from reassuring.
