Bird Box - A Novel

''A book that demands to be read in a single sitting, and through the cracks between one''s fingers. There has never been a horror story quite like this. Josh Malerman truly delivers.'' -- -Hugh Howey, New York Times bestselling author of Wool ''This completely compelling novel contains a thousand subtle touches but no mere flourishes-it is so well, so efficiently, so directly written I read it with real admiration. Josh Malerman does the job like a fast-talking, wised-up angel.'' -Peter Straub -- -Peter Straub ''[A] chilling debut... Malerman...keeps us tinglingly on edge with his cool, merciless storytelling [and] douses his tale in poetic gloom....An unsettling thriller, this earns comparisons to Hitchcock''s The Birds, as well as the finer efforts of Stephen King and cult sci-fi fantasist Jonathan Carroll.'' -- -Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ''The author uses understatement and allusion to create a lean, spellbinding thriller that Stephen King fans will relish.'' -- -Publishers Weekly (starred review)
