Jemisin After thirty years, the secret government agency known as the Southern Reach has been unable to solve the mysteries of Area X, a seemingly malevolent landscape wiped clean of human civilisation. Or is “pristine wilderness” a better description? Expedition after expedition has failed to come up with answers, often disastrously.The Southern Reach, in the process, has become a backwater agency, forgotten and underfunded despite the urgency of its mission.Following the tumultuous twelfth expedition chronicled in Annihilation, the agency is in complete disarray. Enter John Rodriguez (aka “Control”), the Southern Reach’s newly appointed director.Working with a distrustful team desperate for success, Control must navigate a maze of frustrating interrogations, a cache of hidden notes, and hours of profoundly troubling video footage.What does it all mean? Can he reach some kind of understanding before it’s too late? In Authority, the second volume of Jeff VanderMeer’s Southern Reach Trilogy, many of Area X’s most disturbing questions are answered … but the answers are far from reassuring. 'Very, very scary!'

Authority, Autonomy, and the Archaeology of a Mississippian Community
A close look at a Mississippi archaeological site that sheds light on a major precolonial civilizationThis book is the first detailed investigation of the important archaeological site of Parchman Place in the Yazoo Basin, a defining area for understanding the Mississippian culture that spanned much of what is now the United States Southeast and Midwest before the mid-sixteenth century.Refining the widely accepted theory that this society was strongly hierarchical, Erin Nelson provides data that suggest communities navigated tensions between authority and autonomy in their placemaking and in their daily lives. Drawing on archaeological evidence from foodways, monumental and domestic architecture, and the organization of communal space at the site, Nelson argues that Mississippian people negotiated contradictory ideas about what it meant to belong to a community.For example, although they clearly had powerful leaders, communities built mounds and other structures in ways that re-created their views of the cosmos, expressing values of wholeness and balance.Nelson’s findings shed light on the inner workings of Mississippian communities and other hierarchical societies of the period.

Punk Authority
Pete Swanson's latest album, Punk Authority, is a breath of fresh air in a genre that can sometimes feel stale. Swanson brings his unique blend of punk and electronic influences to create a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. From the opening track, "Rebel Yell," Swanson's energy is infectious, with pounding drums and distorted guitars driving the music forward. His gritty vocals add a sense of urgency to the songs, as if he's on a mission to shake up the status quo of the music industry. Tracks like "Anarchy in the UK" and "God Save the Queen" showcase Swanson's irreverent sense of humour, as he takes aim at political and cultural icons with his biting lyrics. The production on these tracks is top-notch, with layers of synths and percussion creating a dense, chaotic sound that perfectly complements Swanson's rebellious attitude. Despite the album's title, Punk Authority is anything but formulaic. Swanson experiments with different sounds and structures throughout, keeping the listener on their toes and never quite sure what to expect next. This sense of unpredictability is what sets Swanson apart from other artists in the genre, making Punk Authority a must-listen for anyone looking for something fresh and exciting in the world of punk music. In conclusion, Pete Swanson's Punk Authority is a bold statement from an artist who isn't afraid to push boundaries and challenge expectations. With its infectious energy and fearless attitude, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who gives it a listen.
