Description
Curiosity was discouraged in the Greene tribe. Its members lived out their lives in cramped Quarters, hacking away at the encroaching ponics. As to where they were - that was forgotten. Roy Complain decides to find out. With the renegade priest Marapper, he moves into unmapped territory, where they make a series of discoveries which turn their universe upside-down...Non-Stop is the classic SF novel of discovery and exploration; a brilliant evocation of a familiar setting seen through the eyes of a primitive.
Author Biography
SALES POINTS * #33 in the Millennium SF Masterworks series, a library of the finest science fiction ever written. * 'Our ablest SF writer' Guardian * 'Fascinating reading' Observer * 'A classic of the field' The Encylopedia of Science Fiction * 'Non-Stop was one of the first sf novels I read, and it haunts me to this day. Its gritty reality and wonderful list of characters make the setting seem so immediate and palpable, you can almost taste it' Greg Bear
