Recursion

From the Bestselling Author of Dark Matter Comes an Exciting, Twisty Thriller

By: Blake Crouch

Narrated by: Abby Craden, Jon Lindstrom

'Action-packed, brilliantly unique' – Andy Weir, author of The Martian

A compulsive, mind-bending exploration of memory and what it means to be human, Recursion is a breathtaking thriller from the author of Dark Matter, Blake Crouch.

At first, it looks like a disease.

An epidemic that spreads through no known means, driving its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived.

But the force that’s sweeping the world is no pathogen. It’s just the first shockwave, unleashed by a stunning discovery – and what’s in jeopardy is not just our minds.

In New York City, Detective Barry Sutton is closing in on the truth – and in a remote laboratory, neuroscientist Helena Smith is unaware that she alone holds the key to this mystery . . . and the tools for fighting back.

Together, Barry and Helena will have to confront their enemy – before they, and the world, are trapped in a loop of ever-growing chaos.

'Recursion takes mind-twisting premises and embeds them in a deeply emotional story about time and loss and grief and most of all, the glory of the human heart' – Gregg Hurwitz, author of Orphan X

Critic reviews

Crouch isn’t just a world-class thriller writer, he’s a Philip K. Dick for the modern age. Recursion takes mind-twisting premises and embeds them in a deeply emotional story about time and loss and grief and most of all, the glory of the human heart (Gregg Hurwitz, international bestselling author of Orphan X)

It's not often I plough through a book in two days. But Blake Crouch’s action-packed, brilliantly unique Recursion had me up late and shirking responsibilities until I had devoured the last page. A fantastic read (Andy Weir, Number one New York Times bestselling author of The Martian)

Blake Crouch has invented his own brand of page-turner--fearlessly genre-bending, consistently surprising, and determined to explode the boundaries of what a thriller can be (Karin Slaughter)

Blake Crouch is brilliant. His innovative novels never fail to grip! (Sarah Pekkanen, bestselling co-author of The Wife Between Us)

This is a mind-twisting exploration of memory and what it means to be human. If you’re into thoughtful, fluidly written science fiction, this one will hit the mark

Blake Crouch's fantastic, mind-blowing philosophical thriller

Smart and twisty, Recursion will make you rethink everything you thought you know, not just about time travel, but about time itself

Praise for Dark Matter: Brilliant . . . I think Blake Crouch just invented something new (Lee Child)

Praise for Dark Matter: It also might be the most helter-skelter, race-to-the-finish-line thriller you'll read all year

Excellent

Really enjoyable. Read this one after dark matter which for me was the better of the two but this one was also great.

"Memory is all he's made of."

First time I've read a Blake Crouch, and I can only say - brilliant.
Loved the book, terrified by the concept and totally applauding of narrators Non Undstrom
m and Abby Craven for their excellent performances. Their contrasting voices in a!alternating chapters both helped keep the story as clear as could be expected from tangled and overlapping concept sequences, but also brought a fine warmth into the characters portrayed.

Loved the book, made even better by the reading. Highly recommended

Everything I'd hoped for

Since we listened to Dark Matter, my husband and I have been huge Blake Crouch fans. This book was everything we had hoped for. An amazing gripping story with the perfect amount of Scifi, romance and mystery. Absolutely loved this book and would highly recommend it.

Mind boggling

At the beginning it’s a bit harder to follow or wrap your brain around it, but towards the end it will get you so you won’t let it go…
Nice!

What a Rollercoaster!

This was such a wild ride, I definitely recommend this book, it really took off midway and kept me guessing! more please
