Justin Cronin Books in Order

Justin Cronin is a celebrated author of epic, genre-defying novels that captivate readers worldwide. His 2010 phenomenon, The Passage, drew comparisons to the works of Cormac McCarthy, Michael Crichton, Stephen King, and Margaret Atwood, and spent three months on The New York Times bestseller list. This unforgettable tale enchanted readers globally and was featured on numerous "Best of the Year" lists, including Time's "Top 10 Fiction of 2010" and NPR's "Year's Most Transporting Books." Stephen King praised The Passage, calling it "enthralling... read this book and the ordinary world disappears." Cronin's subsequent novels, including Mary and O'Neil and The Summer Guest, demonstrate his mastery of storytelling. A PEN/Hemingway Award-winner and Whiting Writer's Award recipient, he is also a National Endowment for the Arts fellow. Currently, a Distinguished Faculty Fellow at Rice University, Cronin splits his time between Houston, Texas, and Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
