About this audiobook
'The Girl with All The Gifts meets To Kill A Mockingbird' Claire North, author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August
'It's quite rare to find a story with this much heartbreaking impact . . . this is skilful, powerful stuff' SciFiNow
THEY CALL IT THE PLAGUE
A generation of children born with extreme genetic mutations
THEY CALL IT A HOME
But it's a place of neglect and forced labour
THEY CALL HIM A FREAK
But Dog is just a boy who wants to be treated as normal
THEY CALL THEM DANGEROUS
They might be right
The story of a lost generation, and a boy who just wants to be one of us.
'One of Us is a stunning achievement in speculative fiction' Shelf Awareness
'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 soul' John Dixon
'Without a doubt one of the best books I'll read this year . . . a compelling work of near perfection' Bracken MacLeod
'This 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 you' Seanan McGuire
