The Rains is one of those all-too-creepy-and-believable stories that leaves you looking in your backyard for the next strange weed to poke through the ground. Chilling!"--Ridley Pearson, New York Times bestselling author "The Rains is a fearsome exploration of survival that turns the horrors of the natural world into our worst nightmares.

The novel's ultimate cliffhanger ending is a satisfying conclusion of intrigue and suspense and will leave readers wanting more. Alex, a major character and Patrick's girlfriend, is a blond, white girl and a feminist force to be reckoned with. This zombie-esque sci-fi novel will feed the needs of readers looking for a fast-paced, adrenaline-pumping story with elements of horror."--Kirkus Reviews "Best-selling author of adult thrillers Hurwitz turns to YA alien invasion in this suspenseful series starter. Modest, hard-working Chance, who narrates through diary entries, worships his lionhearted brother and will do anything to save him; their deeply caring relationship gives the action emotional intensity. Chance's transformation into a determined, selfless hero is well-earned. . . . Best-seller Hurwitz has proven he knows how to hook an adult audience. Expect his YA debut to have the same effect on teens."--Booklist "In his first book for teens, Hurwitz crafts a tense, disturbing tale that's simultaneously a story driven by brotherly love and the determination to survive against impossible odds. It's a grim affair, the fight scenes brutal and visceral, and the cliffhanger ending will have readers desperate for answers."--Publishers Weekly
