About this ebook
Curiosity was discouraged in the Greene tribe. Its members lived out their lives in cramped Quarters, hacking away at the encroaching ponics. As to where they were - that was forgotten.
When Roy Complain loses his wife, he decides to find out. With the renegade priest Marapper, he moves into unmapped territory, where they make a series of discoveries which turn their universe upside-down. Is their world really a world at all, or just a container moving between worlds...?
NON-STOP is the classic SF novel of discovery and exploration. 'Fascinating' Observer

I love the story, I first read this on holiday in 1986 when I found a copy in a cupboard in a caravan in France. Brilliant narrative by Aldiss. Glad I found it again, you won't be disappointed if you read it.
