Chain of Events

Reviews / Votes

Secrets are unveiled with a masterful sense of pace . . . Olsson has the page-turning power of Michael Crichton * The Sun * A colourful blockbuster thriller couched in distinctly cinematic terms * The Independent * 'Chain of Events' has a conceit at its heart that is so simple and clever I wish I'd thought of it. If you like your clocks ticking and your end of the world nighing and your pace fast and relentless, all shot through with a little bloody pandemic and code cracking, then boy are you ever going to love this book. I did. * Simon Toyne * Thrilling action sequences... compulsive reading * Lincolnshire Echo * I loved it absolutely and with passion - I wish I could start all over again now with no knowledge, yet another reminder for me of why I read * Liz Loves Books * The tension never lets up as the stakes get higher and higher in this fast-paced thriller. Chain of Events is an exciting and entertaining read and an impressive debut novel for Swedish screenwriter Fredrik T Olsson * Izzy Reads * Each page is action-packed, filled with enough detail and thrill to wind you up so much the anticipation could set you off like a top . . . I loved this book. * naturalbri-pursuitsoflife.blogspot.co.uk * Olsson's debut, a world-in-peril thriller, gets high marks for developing an original concept and building suspense * Publishers Weekly * Exhilerating. Utterly exhausting. Totally addictive. Unbelievably clever and if you want your thrillers to be, well you know, actually thrilling, you have come to the right place. * Liz Loves Books * Swedish scriptwriter Olsson's first novel amps up the action via a doomsday scenario set in Europe . . . Olsson lines up a sympathetic and well-developed cast of characters, inserts them into some interesting places, and allows very few dull moments, especially once the action really gets rolling. An end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it thriller featuring two unlikely, but very likable, protagonists. * Kirkus * Don't wait for the film, read it now - before it's too late! (5 stars) * Weekend Sport *
