Jeff VanderMeer’s highly anticipated fourth installment in the Southern Reach series, Absolution, is now available for avid readers. This groundbreaking addition follows the acclaimed initial trilogy released in 2014. Annihilation, the last major connection to the Southern Reach series, was adapted into a film in 2018, sparking renewed interest in VanderMeer’s imaginative universe.
For fans of the movie who have yet to delve into the books, Annihilation serves as a fascinating starting point, revealing key differences from the cinematic version. The 10th Anniversary Editions of Annihilation, Authority, and Acceptance provide a cohesive look with matching covers throughout the series. A particularly enticing option for fans is Area X, a single-volume hardcover that compiles the original trilogy, currently available for just $22. Coupled with VanderMeer’s Ambergris Trilogy omnibus, also priced at $22, readers can take advantage of an ongoing “Buy One, Get One 50% Off” promotion will allow them to secure a fantastic deal, effective through October 26.
Absolution continues to explore the enigmatic landscapes of Area X—an uninhabited coastline with bizarre phenomena. This latest book addresses lingering questions from the original trilogy while unveiling new mysteries for readers to explore. With its 464 pages divided into three sections, each filled with new adventures, Absolution stands as the longest book in the Southern Reach series to date.
Currently, Absolution is available in hardcover for $27, in a Kindle edition for $15, and as an audiobook for $20 or an Audible credit for subscribers.
