Reviews
A tense story with superbly rendered characters
A terrifying, emotional page-turner that explores what it means to be human
A tense, satisfying post-apocalyptic thriller
Thoughtful and compelling
Carey writes with compassion and fire - strange and surprising and humane
Spectacular! I enjoyed it just as much as The Girl With All the Gifts, if not more
The hefty brio of a Stephen King, the fierce intelligence of a John Wyndham
Unputdownable
Carey manages to again build an impressive story that carries hope within its horror
