Reviews

Financial Times
Novak puts an innovative spin on the idea that inside every parent lurks a monster, and delivers pulse-racing set pieces as a pervasive sense of dread blossoms into something poisonous. The result is a stylish parable of greed, peppered with plenty of dry urban humour
Washington Post
Delightfully entertaining...redolent of Roald Dahl at his creepy best
New York Times
Above and beyond its fatality count BREED has originality on its side; the ending is a true shocker
USA Today
Chase Novak unleashes truly scary literary horror villains in BREED: Mom and Dad...a thrill to read
New York Daily News
A slice of shivering dread
Stephen King
The best horror novel I've read since Peter Straub's Ghost Story. By turns terrifying and blackly funny, BREED is a total blast.
SFX
A nightmarish, yet sickeningly plausible world... An exceptional novel that's crying out for a movie adap
