He is the author of the Alex Cross novels, the most popular detective series of the past twenty-five years, including "Kiss the Girls "and "Along Came a Spider."

"Behind all the noise and the numbers, we shouldn't forget that no one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent--which is what James Patterson has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it." "Lee Child""

"Twenty years ago, I wrote, '"Along Came a Spider" is the best thriller I've come across in many a year. It deserves to be this season's #1 bestseller and should instantly make James Patterson a household name.' A household name, indeed." "Nelson DeMille""

"It's no mystery why James Patterson is the world's most popular thriller writer: his uncanny skill in creating living, breathing characters we truly feel for and seamless, lightning-fast plots. I do this for a living, and he still manages to keep me guessing from the first to last page. Simply put: Nobody does it better." "Jeffery Deaver""

"James Patterson is The Boss. End of." "Ian Rankin""

"Alex Cross is one of the best-written heroes in American fiction, and each Cross novel further defines what it means to be a professional, a husband, a father, and above all, a man." "Lisa Scottoline""

"Twenty years after the first Alex Cross story, he has become one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time, a character for the ages." "Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child""
