Industry Reviews

"A dark and eerie world, a razor sharp plot, and a heroine worth rooting for make DEAD SET unforgettable."--Kami Garcia "If punk and underworld mythology got into the mosh pit, it would come out something like this book; spiky and pretty with lashings of black eyeliner and its heart tattooed on its sleeve."--Lauren Beukes "A fantastic supernatural horror novel with deep punk roots ... Kadrey's underworld is a gloomy mirror of the overworld with all its injustice and broken dreams, and Zoe's battle with her fear and her honorable spirit put her in enough jeopardy for six novels.--Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing "This bittersweet and elegaic fantasy will appeal to both fantasy fans and mainstream readers."--Publishers Weekly "An intelligent stand-alone tale of quiet horror that should appeal to Kadrey's many fans, as well as to lovers of more subtle shivers."--Library Journal "A tender, if terrifying, story of a lost teenager trying to find her way."--Los Angeles Times "Kadrey again has painted a world that draws you in with its mysterious, yet frightening, beauty...The imagery is just phenomenal."--Crimespree Magazine
