If you were drawn to Control's tense navigation of Southern Reach's opaque hierarchy and the subtle games of authority in Authority, you'll be fascinated by Inspector Borlú's investigation in The City & The City, where politics and hidden agendas twist reality itself. Miéville crafts a world where every decision and conversation is fraught with unseen power plays, mirroring the intricate bureaucratic intrigue that made Authority so compelling.

If you appreciated the way Authority delves into Control's anxieties, uncertainties, and slow unraveling within the Southern Reach, you'll find Never Let Me Go just as haunting. Ishiguro’s novel immerses you in the minds of characters shaped by mysterious rules and an oppressive institution, building a similar sense of slow-burning psychological unease and introspection.

If you were captivated by the Southern Reach's strange, immersive setting—where the familiar becomes alien—The Raw Shark Texts will pull you in with its inventive, layered universe. Hall guides you through a reality filled with conceptual sharks, shifting landscapes, and secret organizations, evoking the same sense of creeping otherness and meticulous detail that defines Authority.

If you found yourself second-guessing Control’s perceptions and the secrets of the Southern Reach, you'll be hooked by The Silent Patient. Told through a narrator whose reliability is constantly in question, the novel expertly peels back layers of truth and deception, echoing the unsettling ambiguity and narrative tension that makes Authority so engrossing.

If you loved the way Authority takes its time unraveling the mysteries of Area X and immersing you in a slow, simmering sense of foreboding, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle will resonate deeply. Murakami’s novel masterfully builds tension and strangeness, letting you sink into the protagonist’s growing unease as reality shifts around him, much like Control’s journey within the Southern Reach.
