Críticas

"Richard Preston has brought us another book that reads like a top-notch thriller. Would that it were fiction. As the movie unfolds in your mind, remember this: It can happen here."--Laurie Garrett, author of The Coming Plague

"The Demon in the Freezer is fascinating, frightening, and important. It reads like a thriller, but the demons are real. Richard Preston has a 'black patent' on this kind of reporting and storytelling. He is the only writer on the scene who can make the inside story of biological weapons so darkly entertaining. Read this book and pray that its heroes can lock the demon back in the freezer."--Jonathan Weiner, author of The Beak of the Finch

Praise for The Hot Zone

"One of the most horrifying things I've ever read in my whole life. What a remarkable piece of work. I devoured it in two or three sittings, and have a feeling the memories will linger a long time."--Stephen King

"A tour de force . . . Preston uses the power of simple narrative to drive deep his story's urgent truths."--Los Angeles Times Book Review

"Utterly engrossing . . . Will make your blood curdle."--The Washington Post Book World

Reseña del editor

In a chilling new look at the world of bioterrorism, the best-selling author of The Hot Zone explores the return of smallpox, eradicated in 1979 but now returning in a deadlier, genetically engineered form, and the crusade of three doctors to not only uncover the mastermind of the 2001 anthrax attacks but also prepare for future bioterrorist actions. Reprint.
