Praise for William Sleator's books

Test

"Fast-paced with short chapters that end in cliff-hangers… good read for moderately reluctant readers. Teens will be able to draw comparisons to contemporary society's shift toward standardized testing and ecological concerns, and are sure to appreciate the spoofs on NCLB."

—School Library Journal

"Part mystery, part action thriller, part romance… environmental and political overtones… fast pace and unique blend of genres holds attraction for younger teen readers." —Booklist

The Boy Who Couldn't Die

"Brisk, addictive…" —Publishers Weekly

"Full of zombies, danger, murder, and the creepy twists Sleator is famous for. Just when you think you've solved everything, there's a twist you don't see coming." —ALAN

"Action-packed, full of enough ghoulish surprises, twists, and surreal situations to hook both younger suspense and science fiction fans." —VOYA

Hell Phone

"A suspense-filled plot and touches of macabre humor will appeal to both horror fans and reluctant readers."

—Kirkus Reviews

"The rapid pace and vivid, unsettling conception of the Inferno will grab horror readers."

—School Library Journal
