Praise for Warren Fahy’s thriller FRAGMENT:
“Highly recommended for all popular collections—a perfect read for poolside this summer…FRAGMENT closely follows the patented Michael Crichton style." — Booklist
“I haven't had this much fun reading a science/adventure thriller since Jurassic Park. For the last half I was frozen in place—I couldn't move, couldn't talk. I even teared up a couple of times in pure joy. It took hours for the adrenaline to wear off." — Fangoria
"Hang on to your hats! Mr. Fahy takes readers on a wild ride through a parallel universe where evolution has run amok—think JURASSIC PARK but scarier." — The Wall Street Journal
"Few debuts are as explosive as Warren Fahy's FRAGMENT, a story of evolutionary horror that leaps off the page and grabs for your throat. Think JURASSIC PARK on steroids. This is one helluva ride!" — James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Oracle.
"The plot briskly leaps from survival to an incredible ending I don't dare spoil, and the more you read, the better it gets. By the end I may or may not have had a tear in my eyes. Run-of-the-mill scientific thriller this is not. Highly recommended." — Alex Wolfe, Old Firehouse Books
"Fahy’s imaginative debut puts a fresh spin on the survival-of-prehistoric-beasts theme popularized by JURASSIC PARK." — Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)
"First-time novelist Warren Fahy seems poised to fill Crichton’s shoes with a novel that keeps readers on the edge of their seats even as it explains provocative theories about such topics as the evolutionary role of natural lifespans and the surprising relationship between sexual reproduction and evolution." — Bookreporter.com
"A rollicking tale [that] will enthrall readers of Jurassic Park and The Ruins.” — USA Today
