Flash Boys

    Michael Lewis's epic bestseller tells the outrageous story of the multi-millionaires and whizz kids who scammed the banking system in the blink of an eye - and the whistleblowers who tried to stop them. It's hilarious, terrifying and it's all true.

    The greatest story of our age ... Be very afraid.
     John Arlidge, Sunday Times

    'Thrilling, a masterclass.
    Robert McCrum, Observer, Books of the Year

    Jaw-dropping, astonishing ... Lewis has lit the touch paper.
     Liam Halligan, Spectator

    The kind of writer who creates his own weather system.
    John Lanchester, London Review of Books

    I read Michael Lewis for the same reasons I watch Tiger Woods. I'll never play like that. But it's good to be reminded every now and again what genius looks like.
    Malcolm Gladwell
