NOTES

"Fast-paced and suspenseful. Soule's uncomfortable vision of the future will please readers of cutting-edge speculative fiction. " - Publishers Weekly "An imaginative, time-fragmented thriller about the bitter and potentially deadly consequences of body-snatching. Readers won't feel that they're on the edge of their seats as much as they're on a balance beam above a pit of lava while trying to solve a Rubik's Cube." - Kirkus Reviews "With his second novel, Anyone, Charles Soule establishes himself as an author that readers of speculative fiction will love for years to come. The book will leave you thinking about gender, power, and what it means to be human for long after the final chapter." - Jennifer Wright, author of Get Well Soon: History's Worst Plagues and the Heroes That Fought Them "Soule has wrapped a sharp, prescient investigation of the human mind inside a breakneck thriller that will have you riveted until the very last twist. Anyone is truly a book for everyone." - Peng Shepherd, author of The Book of M "I spent much of my childhood inside DARPA, where my father was Deputy Director, and this book captures the imagination and double-edged sword of our greatest scientific leaps. The same technology that can cure the world's ills might also cause us to spiral into our own greed, selfishness, and vanity. Charles Soule's Anyone is a remarkable, consequential novel and a terrifying wake-up call." - Susan Henderson, author of The Flicker of Old Dreams "A scientist's experiment gone wrong leads to a technology, called "flash," that changes the world. Charles Soule (The Oracle Year) gives this conventional sci-fi theme a rollicking 21st-century update in Anyone... . . Fans of N.K. Jemisin will devour this mind-bending novel." - Shelf Awareness "Anyone is an intense, superbly crafted, edge of your seat thrill ride. I loved the two slowly converging storylines, not to mention the most dedicated, hardcore character I've read in a long, long time. Who would you be if you could be anyone? I'd really like to be Charles Soule and have written this book." - Sylvain Neuvel, author of Sleeping Giants "Explosive" - Booklist
