Boneland

Boneland is a 2012 novel by Alan Garner, a sequel to The Weirdstone of Brisingamen and The Moon of Gomrath.

The boy Colin from the earlier novels is now an adult, still living near the top of Alderley Edge but now a professor working at the nearby Jodrell Bank Observatory.

He has a form of amnesia which means he remembers nothing from before the age of 13, including his twin sister and his childhood adventures.

Interleaved with Colin's tale is another story set in the same part of England but at a distant time.

A lone Stone-Age cave dweller leaves "Ludcruck" (the chasm of Ludchurch) in search of companionship.
