<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The conclusion of Suzuki's Ring trilogy is a highly cerebral metaphysical thriller--one that once again turns the story inside out in a self-referential swirl not unlike the one that gives rise to consciousness itself.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The Inspiration for the New Major Motion Picture RINGS</b> <p/>Learn the final truth about the Ring! <p/> In this much-awaited conclusion of the <i>Ring</i> trilogy, everything you thought you knew about the story will have to be put aside. In <i>Loop</i>, the killer mimics both AIDS and cancer in a deadly new guise. Kaoru Futami, a youth mature beyond his years, must hope to find answers in the deserts of New Mexico and the Loop project, a virtual matrix created by scientists. The fate of more than just his loved ones depends on Kaoru's success. <p/> <i>Loop</i> is written as a stand-alone work though it is best enjoyed by fans of <i>Ring </i>and <i>Spiral</i>. The author's own favorite of the trilogy, this astounding finale is an emotionally resonant tale that scales conceptual heights from an angle all its own. Fiction about fiction has rarely been so gripping.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Loop</i> is a Suzuki masterpiece and will shake you to your core whether you like it or not." -<i> Book Magazine </i>(Japan) <p/>"[Suzuki] does not disappoint... <i>Loop</i> satisfies better than the original or its sequel when you want real answers." -<i> bookslut.com <p/></i>"High-flying science-fictional redefinition of reality... [Suzuki] is more interested in separating your head from your body philosophically than physically." - <i>The Agony Column</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Koji Suzuki was born in 1957 in Hamamatsu, southwest of Tokyo. He attended Keio University where he majored in French. After graduating he held numerous odd jobs, including a stint as a cram school teacher. Also a self-described jock, he holds a first-class yachting license and crossed the U.S., from Key West to Los Angeles, on his motorcycle. <p/> The father of two daughters, Suzuki is a respected authority on childrearing and has written numerous works on the subject. He acquired his expertise when he was a struggling writer and househusband. Suzuki also has translated a children's book into Japanese, <i>The Little Sod Diaries</i> by the crime novelist Simon Brett. <p/> In 1990, Suzuki's first full-length work, <i>Paradise</i> won the Japanese Fantasy Novel Award and launched his career as a fiction writer. <i>Ring</i>, written with a baby on his lap, catapulted him to fame, and the multi-million selling sequels <i>Spiral </i>and<i> Loop</i> cemented his reputation as a world-class talent. Often called the Stephen King of Japan, Suzuki has played a crucial role in establishing mainstream credentials for horror novels in his country. He is based in Tokyo but loves to travel, often in the United States. <i>Birthday</i> is his sixth novel to appear in English.
