colin reviewed Absolution by Jeff VanderMeer (Southern Reach, #4)
Blah
DNF. I think I’ve liked every VanderMeer book I’ve read a little less than the one before, and this one crossed a line somewhere in the last third.
Structured in three parts, each recounting a new expedition, there are some long-awaited answers here, to be sure, but also more questions, and profound new surprises. Absolution is a brilliant, beautiful, and ever-terrifying plunge into unique and fertile literary territory. It is the final word on one of the most provocative and popular speculative fiction series of our time.
