The Uninvited - Softcover

Extraordinary ... A hugely inventive generic hybrid, part-crime thriller, part morality tale, that dances along the borders of SF (Arifa Akbar Independent)

There is no question that The Uninvited makes for a gripping read ... she is a great British author with a talent for brilliantly written and truly original tales (Daily Express)

Expertly paced, combining moments of chilling horror with deadpan comedy, this audacious novel is utterly gripping (Stephanie Cross Daily Mail)

In the course of eight inventive, provocative novels, Jensen has carved out a fictional space dense with elements of fantasy and thriller, satire and SF, science and cod-science, but entirely her own. The mainstream is moving towards her, rather than the other way around ... The book is so tightly wrought that even the recurrent phrase "not yet", which Hesketh teaches Freddy to append whenever anyone says "I don't know" as an earnest of the forward march of knowledge, comes to have a dark second meaning ... chilling (Justine Jordan Guardian)

Psychologically rich and consistently thought-provoking ... always absorbing (John Dugdale The Sunday Times)

A masterclass in creepiness - as unsettling as Margaret Atwood or Kazuo Ishiguro but with modern detail such as Skype calls, industrial espionage and Twitter. It is this hybrid of haunted souls and capitalist cautionary tale that gives the novel its power (Alexandra Heminsly Independent)

Like Jensen's previous novel, The Rapture, this is as dazzling as it is unsettling (Voyager)

We Need to Talk About Kevin meets The Children of Men in this literary thriller from the author of The Rapture. As the unsettling story unfolds, delayed flights will be no problem with this in your bag (Elle, Summer Reads)

Recalling Margaret Atwood's haunting The Handmaid's Tale ... A compelling, poetic and subtle psychological thriller (Rebecca Wallersteiner The Lady)

This brilliantly odd thriller mixes the quirky charm of The Curious Incident of The Dog in the Nighttime with the sci-fi strangeness of Doctor Who ... You'll be kept guessing until the final pages (Easy Living)
