Wool

Reviews

Exhilarating, intense, addictive. A novel you will never forget.

—— SJ Watson

Thrilling, thought-provoking and memorable . . . one of dystopian fiction's masterpieces alongside the likes of 1984 and Brave New World.

—— Daily Express

Well written, tense, and immensely satisfying, Wool will be considered a classic for many years in the future.

—— WIRED

Wool is frightening, fascinating, and addictive. In one word, terrific.

—— Kathy Reichs

A thrilling sci-fi novel, equally adept at world-building, pulling the rug out from under its readers, and commenting in classic sci-fi fashion on our own present day.

—— The Slate

Brilliantly written . . . Howey creates a starkly believable and terrifying apocalypse.

—— Sunday Express

Wool is incredible . . . the best science fiction series I've read in years.

Claustrophobic and, at times, genuinely terrifying.

You can’t go wrong with Harlan Coben. If you’re after the kind of thriller that has you taking the phone off the hook… and staying up past any reasonable hour in order to keep turning the pages, then he’s your man

—— Business Post

Harlan’s plots never drop below breakneck speed … By the end my head was spinning, but it’s expertly done, a visual tale that will surely be on screen one day. For now, it’s a perfect page-turner

—— RTÉ Guide

'Such is the intensity of the short chapters ending on cliffhangers that you want the main story to keep going, despite the crucial chapters dealing with time that has passed . . . Well written, this thriller makes for compulsive reading.'

'I read this in two sittings. As twisty as a corkscrew, as taut as a garotte, this is a total masterclass in thriller writing.'

'Andrea Mara smashes it yet again with a story you simply cannot set aside! A pacy gritty acutely observed nightmare chase through London - helped or is it hindered by a group of toxic friends. My heart was thumping right to the end!'

Mara is truly gifted at this kind of story, and this is a proper page-turner, with several cliff hangers and plenty of red herrings. As the action progresses, the pace intensifies to a pulse-rising intensity . . . A most satisfying thriller.
