Critics Review

‘Swierczynski steps on the gas early in this pulse-pounding contemporary thriller, the first of a trilogy, and doesn’t let up…The sequel’s appearance won’t be too soon for many readers.’

Praise for FUN AND GAMES - .

A terrific read for about the price of a counter lunch. - Courier Mail

The premise is basically absurd, but Swierczynski delivers it with such breathless enthusiasm and good humour that it is easy to settle back and devour the book in a single go. Great fun. - The Canberra Times

A high octane, cinematic delight that uses film techniques of fast pace and quick cuts and highly visual scenes to rivet the reader to their chair. I loved it - Joe R. Lansdale

Cool, suspenseful, tragic, and funny as hell…I haven’t had this much fun reading in a long time. - Sara Gran

Swierczynski steps on the gas early in this pulse-pounding contemporary thriller, the first of a trilogy, and doesn’t let up…The sequel’s appearance won’t be too soon for many readers. - Publishers Weekly

Swierczynski’s on a mission to find out just how insanely entertaining a thriller can be, and FUN AND GAMES is his finest accomplishment yet. - Josh Bazell
