Kiernan's writing -- starkly visual, tongue in cheek and disturbingly visceral -- carries the day. --The New York Times Kiernan's subtly haunting voice draws the reader in. --Publishers Weekly Caitlin R Kiernan is one of those writers that you can't believe isn't a household name. Her writing is fantastic and her stories are dark, complex and wonderful. -- Book Riot Caitlin Kiernan is one of the great stylists of horror fiction, and this novella is a triumph. It bristles with energy and ideas -- ideas that seem to spill off the page -- and everything is underpinned by a sense of cosmic bleakness that took my breath away. I fell in love with the characters. The story pulled me along by the nose. I honestly didn't want it to end. --Gary McMahon, author of the Concrete Grove trilogy
