For someone who loves stories about brothers and sisters, as I do, The Immortalists is about as good as it gets. A memorable and heartfelt look at what might happen to a family who knows too much. It’s amazing how good this book is.

A captivating family saga - New York Times Book Review

A compelling and utterly absorbing read with virtuoso storytelling on display. The drive to discover how each character’s story unfolds gives the novel a sense of urgency yet Chloe Benjamin’s prose - lyrical, tender, perceptive - compels you to linger on every exquisitely crafted sentence. It is a hugely powerful novel and asks fundamental questions about fate, mortality and life and the ways we choose to live it - Sunday Express

Benjamin crams her novel with incident, while never stinting on detail. Such is her dazzling sureness of touch that you wonder if here is a writer who is truly capable of anything. - Daily Mail

Mesmerising, like a well-crafted illusion…Benjamin is a gifted writer, a creator of quiet asides and haunting images, who mines a seam of sad wisdom - Financial Times

Once I started reading The Immortalists, I resented every moment I had to spend away from the book until I’d finished. It’s an extraordinarily moving, beautifully told and, at times, almost unbearably tense read - Stylist
