Lincoln Child weaves fascinatingly plausible technologies and a frighteningly believable tale." Dan Brown, author of THE DA VINCI CODE "As far as plot, action and suspense are concerned, UTOPIA could hardly be improved upon, but that is only the first of Child's achievements. His characters are first-rate, as is his writing.... UTOPIA is a sensational piece of popular entertainment. If you're looking for intelligent fun, it doesn't get much better than this." "Washington Post Book World " "A beautifully crafted scare-fest.... UTOPIA's gadgetry is heaven for techno-thriller fans, and the threats from the sabotaged attractions are startlingly inventive. Here's hoping for a sequel." "People Magazine "
