Praise For This Book |
"You'll gulp Dark Matter down in one afternoon, or more likely one night... Alternate-universe science fiction [and] a countdown thriller in which the hero must accomplish an impossible task to save his family. There's always another door to open, and another page to turn." -New York Times Book Review "A mind-blowing sci-fi/suspense/love-story mash-up." -Entertainment Weekly "A fast, tasty read with a killer twist. It's a whole bag of barbecue chips...just sitting there waiting for you to devour in one long rush." -NPR.org "A hard tale to shake...makes its characters - and readers - wonder what life would have been like had they made different decisions. Relatable and unnerving." -USA Today "Propulsive...Dark Matter has plenty of heady concepts and phantasmagorical plotting. But it is also beguilingly rooted in [its hero's] desperate travails, elevating this page-turning adventure into an entirely different dimension." -Entertainment Weekly "A blockbuster read that channels Michael Crichton... I can't remember when I last sat down and blew through a book in literally a single sitting." -The Verge "A dazzling book for summer [with] a mind-bending premise, a head-spinning plot that's dialogue-driven and adrenaline-fueled, and a gut-wrenching climax that gave me goose bumps." -Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Draws on questions and anxieties we all wrestle with in the dark hours...Crouch has invested [sci-fi motifs] with scientific plausibility, and more unusually, with emotional depth." -Wall Street Journal |
