Justin Cronin recommends
Strangers at the Feast (2010)
Jennifer Vanderbes
"Gorgeously written and uncompromising in its vision, Strangers at the Feast is more than a great novel. It's an important one."
The Water Wars (2011)
Cameron Stracher
"A rousing adventure story in the tradition of The Hunger Games."
Close Your Eyes (2011)
Amanda Eyre Ward
"Electrifying, a literary whodunit of the first order! You won't be able to look away. People will be talking about this book."
The Starboard Sea (2012)
Amber Dermont
"The Starboard Sea is a touching, beautiful, and deeply wise novel, a hymn to the bittersweet glories of youth. You will be enthralled."
Shift (2013)
(Wool Trilogy, book 2)
Hugh Howey
"An epic feat of imagination. You will live in this world."
The Curiosity (2013)
Stephen P Kiernan
"A true page-turner... a book that will stop your heart and start it again."
The Poison Artist (2016)
Jonathan Moore
"Magnificent, thoroughly unnerving . . . I dare you to look away."
The Last One (2016)
Alexandra Oliva
"The Last One seamlessly melds two of our contemporary obsessions - the threat of global catastrophe and the staged drama of reality TV - into a fiercely imagined tale of the human psyche under stress. This is an uncompromising, thought-provoking debut."
On the Free (2017)
Coert Voorhees
"On the Free is a roaring adventure that will make you stand up and cheer."
Upgrade (2022)
Blake Crouch
"The incomparable Blake Crouch has, once again, completely blown my mind. Upgrade is more than a brain-bending thriller; it's a siren in the night, warning us all of the dangers of playing God with the human species."
