1st printing. And Boda vanishes into the curve of a shadow that falls from the side of a rubbish ship that catches soft light from the moon that floats high and serene over the water that laps at the side of the canal.

About this title

Synopsis

In a strange, re-mixed future Manchester, a cloud of pollen descends and people are sneezing themselves to death. A small percentage of the population are immune. Two of them - shadow-cop Sibyl Jones and her wayward daughter, Boda - follow separate paths to the place where the pollen originates.

Review

Pollen is the sequel to Vurt (winner of the 1994 Arthur C. Clarke award), and both are concerned with a world in which dreams, drug-induced hallucination and reality become completely intermingled. In this volume, the dream world unleashes a pollen that threatens to cause people in the real world to sneeze to death.

But no review can do Noon's writing justice: it's a phantasmagoric combination of the more imaginative science fiction masters, such as Phillip K. Dick, genres such as cyberpunk and pulp fiction, and drug culture.
