Schwab is one of those authors you just have to read....She is a literary force to be reckoned with, a writer who packs more punch into a single chapter than most do in a whole series.

The writing and storycraft is Schwab's own superpower as this tale leaps off the page in all its dark...glory." --Chuck Wendig, author of Blackbirds on Vicious "Fresh, merciless, and, yes, vicious. Wow." --Mira Grant, New York Times bestselling author of the Newsflesh Trilogy on Vicious "Reading this book destroyed me physically and emotionally....I would recommend this book to anyone in a heartbeat." -The LA Times on Vicious Praise for V.E.
