Grant doesn't get carried away with describing her world or the virus. She's clearly thought both out brilliantly, but she doesn't let it get in the way of a taut, well-written story.--<i><b>SFX on Feed</b></i><br><br>A rich expansion on a beloved universe.--<i><b>New York Times on Rise</b></i><br><br>Gripping, thrilling, and brutal... Shunning misogynistic horror tropes in favor of genuine drama and pure creepiness, McGuire has crafted a masterpiece of suspense with engaging, appealing characters who conduct a soul-shredding examination of what's true and what's reported.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) on Feed</b></i><br><br>It's a novel with as much brains as heart, and both are filling and delicious.--<i><b>The A. V. Club on Feed</b></i><br><br>OK, all of you readers who want something weighty and yet light, campy and yet smart, horror with heart, a summer beach read that will stay in your head and whisper to you what if, <i>Deadline</i> is just what you are looking for.--<i><b>RT Book Reviews on Deadline</b></i><br><br>While there's plenty of zombie mayhem, political snark, and pointedly funny observations here, the heart of this book is about human relationships, which are still the most important thing in the world...even in a world where you might have to shoot the person you love most in the head, just to stop them from biting off your face.--<i><b>Locus on Feed</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Mira Grant</b> lives in California, sleeps with a machete under her bed, and highly suggests you do the same.
