From the bestselling author of Ascension, Nicholas Binge, Abyss is a creeping, Lovecraftian horror about work, technology and existential dread.   Joe Rice is lost - lonely, disconnected and terminally online. His new job as an administrative assistant at the Ponos corporation seems like just another unfulfilling stop-gap. But from his first day, something is deeply wrong. The vast Canary Wharf office is empty, his line manager is a bundle of paranoid energy, and his work is monitored by WellBot, an AI wellness chatbot that demands total honesty while tracking his every move.   As Joe's tasks descend into a surreal nightmare, he'll eventually learn that handing in his notice could have deadly consequences . . .   `Abyss does a fantastic job of staying uniformly creepy and claustrophobic, drawing its inspiration from a wide variety of sources while remaining trippy as heck' - The Fantasy Hive* * *Praise for Nicholas Binge`Old-school creepy . . . five-star horror' - Stephen King`Extremity is a fantastic, twisty, exhilarating novella . . . easily in the running for best novella of the year' - The Fantasy Hive`Binge is an author to watch' - TJ Klune \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368520069493,"sku":"9781037402098","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781037402098.jpg?v=1763549782","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781037402098","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
