During this time he was a pirate galley slave. The beginning of Bonanza finds Jack Shaftoe awakened from a syphilitic blackout of nearly three years. Though the first publication of the Series in three volumes combined the two novels Bonanza and The Juncto, here the plots will be dealt with as separate entities, true to the author's original intention. In the publication of the two novels as a single volume, Stephenson chose to publish the volume as alternating sections between Bonanza and The Juncto, book 4 and 5 respectively. However, unlike in the other two volumes of the Series, the two novels are set in concurrent periods. Like the other volumes in the series, Confusion was written as multiple novels. In 2005, The Confusion won the Locus Award, together with The System of the World, also by Stephenson. It is the second volume in The Baroque Cycle and consists of two sections or books, Bonanza and The Juncto. The Confusion is a novel by Neal Stephenson.
