The Ferryman by Justin Cronin (Orion, 22) The new novel from the author of The Passage could hardly be more different in tone and setting from that acclaimed horror trilogy.The island of Prospera provides an idyllic existence for the fortunate inhabitants, who display no curiosity about the wider world and accept having no children as the price of immortality: in old age they are ferried to the Nursery, from which they return, young again and memory-wiped, to start over.
