Reviews

"Builds tension expertly. Claustrophobic in mood but with the scope of great space opera, this is SF you will want to read with the light on." --Library Journal, starred review "An exciting new novel from an exciting new voice in SF." --Booklist "Christopher has produced a widescreen Hollywood spectacular in novel form. Not to be missed." --James Lovegrove, New York Times bestselling author "Smart, intricate, and viscerally gripping... Christopher carves a place for himself among the stars of his genre." --V. E. Schwab, author of Vicious "Christopher mines the terror of a setting that feels both tremendously vast and nerve-wrackingly claustrophobic. The Burning Dark will have readers hesitating before glancing at the night sky or turning on their radios." --Robert Jackson Bennett, author of Mr. Shivers and American Elsewhere "With this creepy and compelling mystery, Adam Christopher demonstrates why he's one of the most original and exciting writers working in the genre right now." --Gareth L. Powell, author of Ack-Ack Macaque and The Recollection "Christopher is writing science-fiction unlike anyone else - tense, unsettling, and grounded in a universe full of danger and mystery. The Burning Dark slips a cold, gloved hand around your heart and doesn't let go."--Jen Williams, author of The Copper Promise "A riveting SF mystery reminiscent of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House." --Martha Wells, author of Star Wars: Empire and Rebellion: Razor's Edge
