About Contest (Unabridged)
The New York State Library is transformed into a deadly labyrinth – this thrilling international bestseller is celebrating 30 years since publication, from one of Australia's favourite novelists, Matthew Reilly.
The New York State Library. A silent sanctuary of knowledge; a 100-year-old labyrinth of towering bookcases, narrow aisles and spiralling staircases. For Doctor Stephen Swain and his eight-year-old daughter, Holly, it is the site of a nightmare.
For one night, the State Library is to be the venue for a contest. A contest in which Stephen Swain is to compete – whether he likes it or not. The rules are simple: seven contestants will enter, only one will leave.
With his daughter in his arms, Swain is plunged into a terrifying fight for survival. He can choose to run, to hide or to fight – but if he wants to live, he has to win. Because in a contest like this, unless you leave as the victor, you do not leave at all.
Now presented in a special 30th anniversary edition, celebrating the explosive debut that launched Matthew Reilly's career.
