Summary
A terrifying cabin in the woods horror story for the 21st century, from king of survival horror Max Brooks, bestselling visionary author of World War Z.

Critics Review
A masterful blend of laugh-out-loud social satire and stuff-your-fist-in-your-mouth horror. One elevates the other, making the book, and its message, all the more relevant.
A masterful blend of laugh-out-loud social satire and stuff-your-fist-in-your-mouth horror. One elevates the other, making the book, and its message, all the more relevant. * David Sedaris, New York Times bestselling author of Calypso *
Max Brooks has written the next great epistolary novel. Devolution is phenomenal * Josh Malerman, New York Times bestselling author of Bird Box *
One of the greatest horror novels I’ve ever read. The characters soar, the ideas sing, and it’s all going to scare the living daylights out of you * Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter *
Another triumph from Max Brooks! … I can’t wait until he turns every monster from childhood into an intelligent, entertaining page-turner
A bloody good read – Andrew Hunter Murray, bestselling author of The Last Day
Unputdownable * John Marrs, bestselling author of The One *
Thrilling and terrifyingly prescient. I love Max Brooks! * Jenny Colgan, bestselling novelist and journalist *
Devolution is spellbinding. It is a horror story about how anyone, especially those who think they are above it, can slowly devolve into primal, instinctual behaviour. I was gripped from the first page to the last!
For any fan of Bigfoot or cryptozoology, it’s a referential treat. * Guardian *
From the feverish imagination behind World War Z comes a chilling narrative like no other, as the freshly discovered journals of a massacre survivor posit the horrifying suggestion of supernatural forces at work. Dark, gripping and visceral, Devolution is a unique journey into terror. * Waterstones *
