The New York Times Book Review – Justin Cronin
…wildly entertaining…Just about everything here is borrowed from one venerable pop culture source or another, but it's a rip-roaring setup, and as the bodies accumulate, the pages turn themselves. It's hard to recall a novel—Y.A. or otherwise—in which more bad things happen to more good people in such a short span of time…it's a testament to Yancey's skill that for the duration of this grown-up's reading, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.
