"In the course of eight inventive, provocative novels, Jensen has carved out a fictional space dense with elements of fantasy and thriller, satire and SF, science and cod-science, but entirely her own. ...The mainstream is moving towards her, rather than the other way around This book is so tightly wrought... chilling"

The Guardian

"Unlike some tales of approaching apocalypse, hers positively races with ideas ... Expertly paced, combining moments of chilling horror with deadpan comedy, this audacious novel is utterly gripping"

The Daily Mail

"Like William Boyd and Ian McEwan experimenting with spy novels, Liz Jensen combine[s] the classy texture of her literary fiction with genre plot formulas... [The Uninvted] is psychologically rich and consistently thought-provoking"

The Sunday Times

I've never read anything like this. This is a psychological thriller written by an author with precision timing and an innate talent for the genre. There is an unsettling mix here, of compassion and humanity, along with ideas that are difficult to comprehend - children killing adults. ...Liz Jensen's new novel is both terrifying and redemptive
