Description

NOW A MAJOR FILM

IF YOUVE SEEN WHATS OUT THERE ITS ALREADY TOO LATE
Malorie raises the children the only way she can: indoors, with the doors locked, the curtains closed, and mattresses nailed over the windows.

The children sleep in the bedroom across the hall, but soon she will have to wake them and blindfold them.

Today they will risk everything. Today they will leave the house.

Josh Malermans New York Times bestselling Bird Box is a terrifying psychological thriller that will haunt you long after reading.

Reviews

BIRD BOX turns the old Hollywood clich of facing down the demon inside out then tears it into little pieces
Daily Mail

A book that demands to be read in a single sitting, and through the cracks between one's fingers'
Hugh Howey

A lean, spellbinding thriller that Stephen King fans will relish.
Publishers Weekly (STARRED REVIEW)

You wonder whether that brush against your shoulder was some unspeakable horror or merely a falling leaf
SFX

This completely compelling novel contains a thousand subtle touches but no mere flourishes it is so well, so efficiently, so directly written I read it with real admiration
Peter Straub

Nailbiting will keep you gripped till the last chapter
SciFiNow

'Unflagging suspense and ever-present dread
Adam Nevill

'Uniquely disturbing, exceptionally compelling and beautifully written, I defy anyone not to read it in one sitting'
Sarah Pinborough

An unsettling thriller, earns comparisons to Hitchcock's The Birds, as well as the finer efforts of Stephen King and cult sci-fi fantasist Jonathan Carroll.
Kirkus (STARRED REVIEW)
