An artfully written, exuberant thriller with a mercurial and interesting central character—Barry Forshaw, Guardian

It's a rare treat to read a book by the far-from-prolific Danish author Peter Høeg. . . His latest novel is an offbeat futuristic thriller. . . the challenges Hoeg sets his readers are well worth taking on—Express

A well-tuned and clever femi-thriller.—Politiken

A continually surprising conspiracy thriller.—THRILLER OF THE WEEK, The Mail on Sunday

Peter Høeg is back. And better. And with a novel that is both a thriller, a social critique, and existentially provoking – and on top of that, wonderful and funny.—Dagbladenes Bureau

The main character bares a clear resemblance to a certain Miss Smilla. It is not often that Høeg writes a new novel, but this one has clearly been worth the long wait.—Kulturnaut

Entertaining—Economist

Susan is a resourceful action heroine, part Lisbeth Salander, part Saga Norén, fearless with a crowbar and a screwdriver—The Arts Desk

The Susan Effect introduces an eccentric mix of characters headed by its ultra-bright narrator, Susan Svendson. . . Hoeg is serious, funny, intelligent, ridiculous, preachy, wise, incomprehensible, surreal and persuasive. It’s very readable—Marcel Berlins, The Times

Peter Høeg is back with a new thriller about quantum physics and the fact that the elite is neglecting the rest of society…the novel is a well-placed kick into high society’s modern powdered wigs.—Weekendavisen
