Thomas effectively details the breakdown of established codes of behaviour and the depths of depravity to which humanity can sink... a gripping story
Guardian
This bleak scary and frequently moving novel has a lot of life in it
SFX Magazine
A talent worth watching
Sarah Broadhurst, Bookseller
Thomas shakes concepts of 'normality' to the core. It is a challenge indeed for an author to capture authentic teenage dialogue... compelling subject matter
Independent on Sunday
A riveting and often moving read... The narrator's voice compels the narrative - he's a hugely likeable charachter... this is the best of its type that I've read in a long while. I'll be very interested to see what Thomas writes next
- John Boyne,
Society is on the brink of collapse. The Old World is vanishing, the New World is taking over. There are no rules. Not now that a deadly disease is spreading that causes its victims to turn violent. Previously loving people become murderous. No-one can tell who will turn and who will not.
A work of force and dark brilliance - the perfect expression of the terrors of the 21st Century
