Observer
Alex Michaelides hits the trifecta with his third novel, <i>The Fury</i>. The <b>highly original</b> story structure presents the reader with <b>the king of all unreliable narrators, enough twists and turns to power two novels</b>, and a host of characters that bleed right on the page. <b>For fans of erudite, locked room mysteries told with style and theatrical panache</b>, <i>The Fury</i> will deliver, on all counts
- David Baldacci,
<b>You'll think you know where it's going and you couldn't be more wrong</b>
- Linwood Barclay,
<i>The Fury</i> by Alex Michaelides is<b> a proper, grown-up thriller that exudes class from every page</b>. So much more than a murder mystery, <b>every twist and turn is simultaneously a total surprise and completely inevitable</b>. The writing is perfectly sparse, yet cloaks a narrative of rare complexity. So many contradictions, yet all unite in a devastating whole. <i>The Fury</i> is <b>a very special book</b> and highly recommended
- Janice Hallett,
Another breathtakingly twisty thriller. Takes the classic murder mystery and twists it into something devious and enthralling and consistently surprising
i
This is <b>a masterclass in suspense</b>. A unique and captivating narrator takes you on a journey filled with twists and finely drawn characters you will treasure.<b> This is probably his best book. Not to be missed</b>
- Steve Cavanagh,
<b>A glorious triumph - just brilliant</b>
- Stephen Fry,
<b>Audacious, twisty, compelling, and full of the joyous verve that one only finds in the very best storytelling, this is the best novel yet from Alex Michaelides</b>
