The Ferryman

BECKY SPRATFORD, BOOKLIST

"Fans of the Passage series have been waiting for a new Cronin since 2016, and thankfully, it was worth it; he delivers a chilling, original, and immersive stand-alone sf tale perfectly rendered for our tumultuous times ... A great option for fans of the accessible, compelling, and thought- provoking sf of authors such as Blake Crouch, Cherie Dimaline, and Neal Stephenson".

KIRKUS

"The twists in this novel are plentiful and authentically surprising, and although there are tons of moving parts, Cronin does a wonderful job handling them. This is a dystopian novel that doubles as a detective story, and Proctor is an appealing protagonist, semi-hard-boiled but never descending into cliché. Cronin's prose is solid, and he handles the dialogue, sometimes leavened with humor, expertly. It's a hefty book that moves with an astounding quickness—yet another excellent offering from an author with a boundless imagination and talent to spare ... Twisty, thrilling, and beautifully written."
