And that's what makes it all so terrifying." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "As entertaining as anything he has written since Jurassic Park." -- Dallas Morning News "Read this book. It's enough to scare the DNA out of you." -- Baton Rouge Advocate "NEXT will frighten, worry and amuse you, and keep you thinking long after its final words are read.

NEXT is a popular thriller worth serious reading." -- Adelaide Advertiser "A cracking dark tale about biotechnology and transgenics.
