Rynemonn - Terry Dowling
308 pages B+ format
Completing the internationally acclaimed saga brought to us in Rynosseros, Blue Tyson and Twilight Beach. At last, in eleven exciting linked stories, Tom Rynosseros will uncover his origins, discover what truly happened in the Madhouse and learn the meaning of the three signs that have haunted his life.
In Rynemonn, Tom will face his destiny in the strange red deserts of this ancient land. In Rynemonn, the Blue Captain will come home.
'The Adventures of Tom Rynosseros' are one Australian's response to Frank Herbert's Dune and J.G. Ballard's Vermilion Sands. At once epic and intimate, sweepingly romantic and stirringly adventurous, the Tom Tyson stories stand amongst the very best work that science fiction has to offer.
'Rynemonn, the final book in the series, is a fitting capstone to the tales that Dowling began a quarter of a century ago, both a grand finale and a possible glimpse of a new beginning. A book to be treasured.'
Jonathan Strahan
'Noted Australian wordsmith Dowling brings a close to the adventures of Tom Rynosseros in this collection of 11 stories, three original, with extensive bridging material. "This is the conclusion to the best and most ambitious Australian SF series ever written, and one of the best, ever - period." ' Locus and Australian SF Reader
'Rynosseros … creates a world so alluring that you ache to go there yourself, not to escape the rigours of life, but in order to participate more thoroughly.'
Sydney Morning Herald
'Here is Jack Vance, Cordwainer Smith, and Tiptree/ Sheldon come again, reborn in one wonderful talent … you’ll purr and growl with delight.'
