trapped
between
bad
and

must
find

compromise
between
the

humanity
has
built...including

The
broken
doors
are
closing.

Recenzii
"A
riveting
near-future
medical
thriller
that
reads
like
the
genetically-engineered
love
child
of
Robin
Cook
and
Michael
Crichton."—John
Joseph
Adam
on
Parasite
"Readers with strong stomachs will welcome this unusual take on the future."—Kirkus Reviews on Parasite
"Fans of [the Newsflesh] series will definitely want to check this new book out. But fans of Michael Crichton-style technothrillers will be equally enthralled: as wild as Grant's premise is, the novel is firmly anchored in real-world science and technology."—Booklist on Parasite
"Grant extends the zombie theme of her Newsflesh trilogy to incorporate thoughtful reflections on biomedical issues that are both ominously challenging and eerily plausible. Sally is a complex, compassionate character, well suited to this exploration of trust, uncertainty, and the price of progress."—Publishers Weekly on Parasite
"It's a well-grounded medical wariness that gets at the heart of the what the Parasitology series will be asking: What happens when the cure is worse than the disease?"—NPR Books on Parasite
"An exceptionally creepy medical-horror thriller that's the perfect spine-tingling read for Halloween...[a] roller coaster ride."—RT Book Reviews on Parasite (4 1/2 stars)
"Deft cultural touches, intriguing science, and amped-up action will delight Grant's numerous fans."—Publishers WeeklyonDeadline
"The zombie novel Robert A. Heinlein might have written."—Sci-Fi Magazine onFeed
"A masterpiece of suspense."—Publishers Weekly on Feed (Starred Review)
