Critics Review
The Host is the most human science fiction story I ve ever read Meyer creates powerful and passionate situations that tear at the heartstrings - Asif!
The Host is both an intimate, character-driven romance and a thoughtful sci-fi allegory…The Host is the best kind of science fiction -full of thought-provoking ideas and imaginative concepts, and free of technobabble and cardboard characters.

Her first adult novel has been highly anticipated, and it won’t disappoint. - Courier Mail Meyer takes the simple alien invasion scenario and imbues it with a series of moral dilemmas A brilliant read with a story that is complete without a sequel, though if one appears I’ll be first in line to devour it! - Good ReadingStephenie Meyer is an amazing phenomenon?out of the brightness of her mind and spirit comes the illuminated darkness of her stories. For no matter how much pain her characters suffer, Meyer infuses the tales with light and hope. - Orson Scott Card, author of The Ender SagaA fascinating, passionate, and unique psychological thriller. In The Host, Stephenie Meyer gives a new and surprising meaning to the phrase being of two minds! - Katherine Neville, author of The EightAbout The Author
