The focus on culture, ethics, and the consequences of societal choices will feel familiar and rewarding.

If the ecological rules and environmental stakes in Bannerless resonated with you, The Wall is a gripping next read. Set in a near-future Britain transformed by climate change, the novel follows Kavan as he serves on the defensive Wall protecting his society from rising seas and desperate outsiders. The story’s focus on survival, resource scarcity, and the moral weight of environmental choices echoes the themes that made Bannerless so thought-provoking.

If Enid's strength, depth, and complexity as a protagonist drew you into Bannerless, Alderman's The Power brings you a cast of powerful women who must navigate—and shape—an upheaval in gender dynamics.
