Über das Buch

'ASTONISHING' Locus, 'ENTHRALLING' Guardian, 'CAPTIVATING' Kirkus
***SHORTLISTED FOR THE PHILIP K. DICK AWARD***

The Book of Koli begins a breathtakingly original new trilogy set in a strange and deadly world of our own making.

Beyond the walls of the small village of Mythen Rood lies an unrecognisable landscape. A place where overgrown forests are filled with choker trees and deadly seeds that will kill you where you stand. And if they don't get you, the Shunned men will.

Koli has lived in Mythen Rood his entire life. He believes the first rule of survival is that you don't venture too far beyond the walls.

He's wrong.

    It took a while for the story to pick up the pace. The winning points are the narrators - an illiterate boy and a self-conscious AI in a media player. It's new and intriguing. It's not as fast paced as advertised on the cover. The reader spends a lot of time in Kolis head with his slow thinking. I got impatient by the end, wanting things to finally escalate and move onto a grander scale, which they do. The end leaves the reader with a journey that has just begun. Impossible not to pick up the sequel.
