Nominee for the Sydney J. Bounds Award for Best Newcomer "Realistic British teens and a couple of completely creepy villains make this sci-fi thriller a must for genre fans" - Kirkus Reviews "I thought that Shift was a fast-paced and highly enjoyable read with a thoroughly creative plot line" -- City Book Review "It's slick and quick with just the right amount of squick… and the central premise unfolds satisfyingly." Tom Pollock, author of The City's Son "This is a great blend of super-hero comic with equal parts futuristic thriller and murder mystery tossed in for good measure. There were even a few pages that completely freaked me out and got my heart pounding in fear as Scott got himself into some horrific and scary situations." - Manga Maniac Cafe " Shift is a wonderful debut novel from Strange Chemistry: the exciting new YA imprint from Angry Robot. It's a perfect book for fans of YA looking for something different, and I think it will be enjoyed equally by male and female readers." - Speculating on SpecFic From the Trade Paperback edition.
