Review
Gloriously atmospheric and utterly riveting, this is my favourite Alex Michaelides yet.Ā Readers you are in for a treat! But then what else would you expect fromĀ the undisputed master of the twist? -- Lucy Foley
Deliciously twisty and fiendishly clever. A highly enjoyable tale of subterfuge, secrets and murderĀ āĀ Observer
Alex Michaelides hits the trifecta with his third novel,Ā The Fury. TheĀ highly originalĀ story structure presents the reader withĀ the king of all unreliable narrators, enough twists and turns to power two novels, and a host of characters that bleed right on the page.Ā For fans of erudite, locked room mysteries told with style and theatrical panache,Ā The FuryĀ will deliver, on all counts -- David Baldacci
You'll think you know where it's going and you couldn't be more wrongĀ -- Linwood Barclay
The FuryĀ by Alex Michaelides isĀ a proper, grown-up thriller that exudes class from every page. So much more than a murder mystery,Ā every twist and turn is simultaneously a total surprise and completely inevitable. The writing is perfectly sparse, yet cloaks a narrative of rare complexity. So many contradictions, yet all unite in a devastating whole.Ā The FuryĀ isĀ a very special bookĀ and highly recommended -- Janice Hallett
Another breathtakingly twisty thriller. Takes the classic murder mystery and twists it into something devious and enthralling and consistently surprising āĀ i
This isĀ a masterclass in suspense. A unique and captivating narrator takes you on a journey filled with twists and finely drawn characters you will treasure.Ā This is probably his best book. Not to be missedĀ -- Steve Cavanagh
A glorious triumph - just brilliantĀ -- Stephen Fry
Audacious, twisty, compelling, and full of the joyous verve that one only finds in the very best storytelling, this is the best novel yet from Alex MichaelidesĀ -- Sophie Hannah
Michaelides takes the formula and has fun turning it inside out. Think Patricia HIghsmith meets Noel CowardĀ āĀ Mail on Sunday
Mesmerising - a beguiling labyrinth of twists and surprises, even better thanĀ The Silent Patient.Ā The FuryĀ isĀ The MagusĀ meetsĀ The Secret HistoryĀ on a Greek island paradise where nothing is as it seems, and Alex Michaelides isĀ a master magician, skilfully misdirecting the reader at every turnĀ -- JP Delaney
The FuryĀ isĀ a masterfully woven story of Shakespearean twists and Machiavellian turns. A Greek Tragedy in the guise of a postmodern thriller.Ā Do not miss this one.Ā -- Holly Jackson
A classic, twisting, brilliant murder mystery. A wonderfully drawn cast of characters with a motive to kill for, in a location to die for, keep you guessing until the shocking finale.Ā Clever, and fiendishly funĀ -- Chris Whitaker
A very sophisticated book whichĀ takes the format of a classic murder mystery and elevates it to something very devious and clever indeed. The narrator is fabulous -Ā I was throughly grippedĀ by his voice and it seems to have beenĀ written with great glee. There's such a tremendous complicity to it even though the reader has no idea how much of what he's telling is true, even down to the final pages. The way it reveals itself through the layers of the narrative isĀ very well done indeed. -- Harriet Tyce
The Fury, like its beguiling narrator, isĀ endlessly evolving, wildly entertaining, and like the very best fiction, impossible to pin down. Just when you think you have it cornered, it moves, impossibly and with stunning flourish, toward a devastating finale.Ā The Talented Mr. RipleyĀ for our timeĀ -- Blake Crouch
Alex Michaelides is the grand master of the modern mystery.Ā The FuryĀ reads like Hitchcock with a heart, or Agatha Christie running amok on a wind-whipped Greek island. A tale of old friends and buried emotions ready to explode, all set on in an idyllic island rendered so perfectly you can smell the jasmine, the ouzo and the Aegean Sea.The FuryĀ will, quite literally, blow you away. Totally brilliant.Ā -- Tony Parsons
A master storyteller that never fails to deliver āĀ Daily Mail
Glamorous, sinister, and endlessly surprising,Ā The FuryĀ reads like Agatha Christie and Patricia Highsmith took a Greek vacation together and decided to write a book while there.Ā It's twisty, twisted entertainmentĀ -- Riley Sager
One of those rare books whereĀ really nothing is as it seems. As usual,Ā Alex Michaelides does not disappointĀ -- Ragnar Jonasson
A gripping murder mystery āĀ Daily Record
