As high-concept as it is, Sleeping Giants is a thriller through and through. . . . One of the most promising series kickoffs in recent memory * NPR * This stellar debut novel . . . masterfully blends together elements of sci-fi, political thriller and apocalyptic fiction. . . . A page-turner of the highest order * Kirkus Reviews * This year's The Martian * Buzzfeed Summer Reads * It bursts at the seams with big ideas. This book is a sheer blast from start to finish. I haven't had this much fun reading in ages * Blake Crouch *
