Control, the chosen nickname of John
Rodriguez, has just been promoted to the Director of the Southern Reach after
the former director failed to return from an expedition to Area X. All is not well in this remote outpost,
nothing is as it seems on the surface and numerous factions appear to be a work
behind the scenes. Will Control gain
control? Or will the Southern Reach
control him?
This is the second entry in the
popular Southern Reach trilogy. I
thought I was lost after finishing the first book in the series. I couldn’t have been more wrong. I am MORE lost than I was before! It is a great listen, but you should start
with Annihilation. Not that it will help
all that much. You’ll just be more
grounded in the world, not that you’ll know what’s going on. Still I WANT to know what is going on and am
waiting to listen to the third entry: Acceptance.
