THE MOUNTAIN IN THE SEA - RAY NAYLER KARTONIERT...

*WINNER OF 2023 LOCUS AWARD FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL * FINALIST FOR THE NEBULA AWARD  and THE LOS
ANGELES TIMES RAY BRADBURY PRIZE   " The Mountain in the Sea is a wildly original  gorgeously
written  unputdownable gem of a novel. Ray Nayler is one of the most exciting new voices I've
read in years."  - Blake Crouch   author of Upgrade and Dark Matter    Humankind discovers
intelligent life in an octopus species with its own language and culture  and sets off a
high-stakes global competition to dominate the future.   The transnational tech corporation
DIANIMA has sealed off the remote Con Dao Archipelago  where a species of octopus has been
discovered that may have developed its own language and culture. The marine biologist Dr. Ha
Nguyen  who has spent her life researching cephalopod intelligence  will do anything for the
chance to study them. She travels to the islands to join DIANIMA's team: a battle-scarred
securityagent and the world's first (and possibly last) android.  The octopuses hold the key to
unprecedented breakthroughs in extrahuman intelligence. As Dr. Nguyen struggles to communicate
with the newly discovered species  forces larger than DIANIMA close in to seize the octopuses
for themselves.  But no one has yet asked the octopuses what they think. Or what they might do
about it.  A near-future thriller  a meditation on the nature of consciousness  and an
eco-logical call to arms  Ray Nayler's dazzling literary debut The Mountain in the Sea is a
mind-blowing dive into the treasure and wreckage of humankind's legacy.
