About the Book

From the author of Annihilation, a brilliant speculative thriller of dark conspiracy, endangered species, and the possible end of all things Security consultant "Jane Smith" receives an envelope with a key to a storage unit that holds a taxidermied hummingbird and clues leading her to a taxidermied salamander. Silvina, the dead woman who left the note, is a reputed ecoterrorist and the daughter of an Argentine industrialist. By taking the hummingbird from the storage unit, Jane sets in motion a series of events that quickly spin beyond her control. Soon, Jane and her family are in danger, with few allies to help her make sense of the true scope of the peril. Is the only way to safety to follow in Silvina's footsteps? Is it too late to stop? As she desperately seeks answers about why Silvina contacted her, time is running out--for her and possibly for the world. Hummingbird Salamander is Jeff VanderMeer at his brilliant, cinematic best, wrapping profound questions about climate change, identity, and the world we live in into a tightly plotted thriller full of unexpected twists and elaborate conspiracy.

Review :
"You won't look up even once while you're reading." -- "Washington Post" "[A] mix of thriller and biotech speculative fiction...Exquisite prose pulls the reader deep into the labyrinthine plot." -- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)" "A detective story...futuristic in bearing but deeply relevant to this present, dangerous moment." -- "Omar El Akkad, author of American War" "A taut, breakneck thriller." -- "AV Club" "A thriller equal parts ecological and psychological...revealing our current dystopia." -- "Chuck Wendig, New York Times bestselling author" "An eco-thriller...and an entertaining whirlwind." -- "Kirkus Reviews (starred review)" "Both a thriller and a requiem for a disappearing world." -- "Emily St. John Mandel, New York Times bestselling author" "Celebrates nature while inviting us to contemplate the effects of contamination, pandemics, and other crises and how none of them make us 'even blink anymore.'" -- "San Francisco Chronicle" "Like your favorite Hollywood blockbuster...ecoterrorists, evil corporations, a race to defuse doomsday weapons, gunfire, fisticuffs, action sequences, and hair-raising escapes." -- "Los Angeles Times" "This gripping eco-thriller pulls readers into a world of danger, mystery, and obsession." -- "Meg Gardiner, author of the UNSUB series" "This is climate fiction at its most urgent and gripping." -- "New York Times" "This madcap mystery offers plenty of charms, as well as something much darker." -- "New York Times Book Review" "VanderMeer knocks his conspiracy thriller out of the park." -- "Booklist (starred review)" "Will leave you in the dark for as long as it possibly can, before divulging it all in a shocking reveal." -- "Mystery Suspense magazine" "A strange, seductive eco-thriller ripe for our era." -- "Silvia Moreno-Garcia, New York Times bestselling author"
