Critics Review

Fine, full-blooded entertainment from start to finish.

Publishers Weekly

Captivating . . . As always, Patterson provides a fast-paced thriller full of surprising but realistic plot twists . . . Cross is one of the best and most likable characters in the modern thriller genre.

San Francisco Examiner

It’s no mystery why James Patterson is the world’s most popular thriller writer: his uncanny skill in creating living, breathing characters we truly feel for and seamless, lightning-fast plots. I do this for a living, and he still manages to keep me guessing from the first to last page … Simply put: Nobody does it better.

JEFFERY DEAVER

Behind all the noise and the numbers, we shouldn’t forget that no one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent – which is what Jim has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it.

LEE CHILD, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series

Twenty years ago, I wrote, “Along Came a Spider is the best thriller I’ve come across in many a year. It deserves to be this season’s no. 1 bestseller and should instantly make James Patterson a household name.” A household name, indeed.
