'Next to impossible to put down . . . exciting, mysterious, and totally satisfying.'

STEPHEN KING

*

The islands of Prospera lie in a vast ocean: in splendid isolation from the rest of humanity, or whatever remains of it...

Surrounded by sun, and sea, and stars, their world is perfect. But every paradise comes at a price.

When the truth behind theirs is revealed, it will end a way of life, and start a revolution that will change the course of humanity itself.

And it will all begin with one person hearing these simple words:

"The world is not the world..."

*

PRAISE FOR The Ferryman:

'A mind-bending novel full of big ideas and a rollercoaster's worth of twists and turns - so powerful and thrilling!'

ANDY WEIR, author of The Martian

'All of my sky-high expectations were smashed... Fiction doesn't get better than this.'

BLAKE CROUCH, author of Dark Matter

Great mystery

Really enjoyed this gripping story. The mystery was fun and I wasn’t really sure what was happening until the very end. Don’t want to give anything away but made me reflect a lot on our world, how our society functions and what the future holds.
