"This is one of the best thrillers I've read in a long time, although the word 'thriller' doesn't quite capture the sheer pleasure of reading this story, with its wickedly clever set-up, its unassuming librarian protagonist, its twisty plot and surprise ending. Beyond pure entertainment is the truth this novel speaks about the disturbing times we live in. I highly, highly recommend this book." -- Douglas Preston, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Cabinet of Dr. Leng and The Lost City of the Monkey God "As fast-paced as it is timely.Anthony McCarten shoots a bullet through contemporary America with this wickedly taut conspiracy thriller. I'll never look at my phone the same way again." -- Graham Moore, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Days of Night and The Sherlockian "Going Zero is the first novel I've read in years that speeds the pulse as much as it challenges the brain.

That can-you-beat-the-system hook recalls the juggernaut likes of Ready Player One and Lost, but Going Zero outpaces them both, and dives deeper: it's a speculative-fiction classic in the vein (and even in the league) of I, Robot and Jurassic Park--a thriller you can gobble down with a bucket of popcorn, and also feel smarter for having read. Provocative, perceptive, and--no other word will do--ingenious." -- A.J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window ". an edgy, compulsively readable thriller." -- Publishers Weekly.
