Critics Review
Craig DiLouie’s One of Us is without a doubt one of the best books I’ll read this year … This book has The Island of Dr Moreau’s social conscience, the X-men’s imagination and Harper Lee’s heart. But it is DiLouie’s skill as a storyteller that blends all of that into a compelling work of near perfection
An amazing tour-de-force … One of Us rattled me to the core. An engrossing, emotionally-charged book and a work of terrible beauty. I loved it, heart and soulThis is not a kind book, or a gentle book, or a book that pulls its punches. But it’s a powerful book and it will change youOne of Us is a powerful and heartbreaking tale about hate fear, and truth. Craig DiLouie is fearless as he explores the dark territory of the human heartFrightening in its familiarity, One of Us is a tale of human monsters and monstrous humans - authentic, brutal and inevitableThis seamless fable of loss, violence and hope forces us to examine what it means to be different and what it means to be humanAbout The Author
