Description

Les Thanatonautes is first in a five-part series. The book, which one could classify as philosophic science fiction (with a hint of fantasy), takes us on a voyage to the last unexplored continent, death. The novel tells the story of a researcher Michael Pinson and his friend Raoul Razorbak who go explore the Ultimate Continent (called New Australia): the continent of death. This adventure takes us across the different zones of the continent of the dead to the famous light. In doing these explorations the thanatonautes voluntarily risk their lives to discover the mysteries of death. The book is scattered regularly with a number of different sacred texts drawn from mythology, religion, and cosmogony from all over the world. And it is astonishing to see that each of these points of view resemble each other and tell the same story just with different words and symbols.
