Enthralling...Wendig does an impeccable job blending fact and fiction as he describes invasive species and insects being used as biological weapons. This is a propulsive tale that also examines our interaction with - and ma-nipu-la-tion of - the natural world.
Washington Post Wendig crosses, blurs, and smashes genre boundaries more often - and more skillfully - than any author working today...INVASIVE is one part locked room mystery, one part 1950's monster movie, and one part cutting-edge scientific thriller.
Crimespree Magazine Excellent...Follows the path set forth by Michael Crichton (a la Congo or Jurassic Park) in which Wendig's exhaustive research brings a convincing story of humanity tinkering with nature - only to have it backfire...Expect to see it on the big screen.
Men's Journal This roller-coaster survival tale with copious amounts of creepy insects will appeal to fans of Michael Crichton.
Booklist Fans of Michael Crichton will feel right at home.
Publishers Weekly Chuck Wendig can congratulate himself on a stunning new achievement: becoming the architect of all of my future nightmares...INVASIVE is a terrifying and tightly written thriller.
RT Book Reviews Think Thomas Harris' Will Graham and Clarice Starling rolled into one and pitched on the knife's edge of a scenario that makes Jurassic Park look like a carnival ride. Another rip-roaring, deeply paranoid thriller about the reasons to fear the future.
Kirkus Reviews (starred review) [A] rich, darkly funny page-turner with details designed to make those little hairs on the back of your neck stand up with how plausible [it seems].
