Critics Review

  • As exhilarating as The Passage, with people variously trapped in hideous bleak labour camps, engaging in cage fights with virals (Cronin’s name for vampires) or chained up for decades.

    SUNDAY TIMES

  • For fans of apocalyptic thrillers who aren’t afraid of the dark

    GLAMOUR.COM

  • [The Passage was] smart, well-crafted and entertaining …The Twelve delivers much of the same vitality and vision. Like it’s predecessor, it is a strange new creature for the 21st century: The literary superthriller, driven at once by character and plot

    INTERNATIONAL HERALD TRIBUNE

  • The follow-up to the much-lauded The Passage deepens and darkens the apocalyptic events of the first book

    BELFAST TELEGRAPH

  • [A] literary superthriller.

    NEW YORK TIMES

  • A compulsive read.
