Tighe lives on the wall. It towers above his village and falls away below it. It is vast and unforgiving and it is everything they know. Life is hard on the wall, little more than a clinging on for dear life.
And then one day Tighe falls off the world. And falls, and falls and falls . . . and survives. He finds a new part of the wall; a vast expanse of cluttered ledges packed with more people than he ever imagined existed.
And a war. A war fought by the Popes and their armies. A war Tighe must join, a war that will take him on a journey into the heart of the mystery behind the wall.
'ON' is a superbly confident novel of a radically different world. It has echoes of 'A Canticle For Leibowitz' and 'The Book Of The New Sun'. It is a remarkable feat of imagination and sustained narrative.
