No longer content with dominating the horror genre for decades,
Stephen King now seems set on creating top-notch chillers as a
family business....kick-started by a very Kingish high
concept...made immersively believable by the usual Kingian control
of a vast cast of brilliantly drawn characters. Bravo
*Daily Mail*
'A beauty of a horror tale...The first epic collaboration between
Stephen King and son Owen King is ambitious, heartbreaking and,
when it comes to its central horrors, all too timely...The Kings
create a thought-provoking work that examines a litany of
modern-day issues
*USA Today*
A bulging, colourful epic; a super-sized happy meal, liberally
salted with supporting characters and garnished with splashes of
arterial ketchup.
*Guardian*
Easily devoured, and I look forward to the next book from either or
both Kings eagerly.... One of my favourite books of the year.
*Sci-Fi Bulletin*
This delicious first collaboration between Stephen King (Doctor
Sleep) and his son Owen (Intro to Alien Invasion) is a
horror-tinged realistic fantasy that imagines what could happen if
most of the women of the world fall asleep, leaving men on their
own...The authors' writing is seamless and naturally flowing...once
the action begins, it barrels along like a freight train'
*Publishers Weekly*
The prose never loses its vitality and humour; the ideas are always
intriguing; and there's no gainsaying the adventurousness and
ambition
*The Times*
