<b>The page-turner of the season is <i>Orphan X</i> . . . Wonderful</b>

Times

<i>Orphan X</i> is<b> his best yet</b> - a real celebration of all the strengths Gregg Hurwitz brings to a thriller

<i>Orphan X</i> is the most exciting thriller I've read since <i><b>The Bourne Identity</b></i> ... <b>A new thriller superstar is born</b>!

<i>Orphan X</i> is <b>most exciting new series character since Jack Reacher</b>. A page-turning masterpiece of suspense

<b>A new series character to rival Reacher </b>. . . anyone reading <i>Orphan X</i> won't be surprised that a cadre of peers, from Tess Gerritsen to Lee Child, have lined up to praise it

Independent

<b>A masterpiece of suspense and thrills </b>. . . Turn off the real world and dive into this amazing start to a new series

Daily Mail

'There is a <b>pristine classicism </b>to Gregg Hurwitz's <i>Orphan X</i>, which borrows from <b>Robert Ludlum </b>and superhero lore to bring us Evan Smoak, adopted as a child by a shadowy figure called Jack and trained to be an assassin as part of a secret US government scheme. When the Orphan programme (as it is known) is disbanded, Evan moves to California and devotes himself to good works - taking out a slum-landlord paedophile cop, for example, after his victim calls Evan's special number. However, his meticulously compartmentalised life makes him vulnerable . . . <b><i>Orphan X</i> is tight and tense in all the right places</b>. But it wouldn't work half as well if we didn't feel Evan's pain and share his panic as the worst-case scenario unfolds: another former Orphan, with a less noble agenda, seems to be hunting him. <b><i>Orphan X</i> is weapons-grade thriller-writing from a modern master</b>
