Resumen del Editor

“Absolutely recommended for readers of the cosmic and gloriously horrific.”―Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author

"Snyder’s story follows three infected women; each is given a unique voice and perspective thanks to the vocal talents of Arielle DeLisle, Katherine Littrell, and Lindsey Dorcus."―Library Journal

Sister, Maiden, Monster is a visceral story set in the aftermath of our planet’s disastrous transformation and told through the eyes of three women trying to survive the nightmare, from Bram Stoker Award-winning author Lucy A. Snyder.

A virus tears across the globe, transforming its victims in nightmarish ways. As the world collapses, dark forces pull a small group of women together.

Erin, once quiet and closeted, acquires an appetite for a woman and her brain. Why does forbidden fruit taste so good?

Savannah, a professional BDSM switch, discovers a new turn-on: committing brutal murders for her eldritch masters.

Mareva, plagued with chronic tumors, is too horrified to acknowledge her divine role in the coming apocalypse, and as her growths multiply, so too does her desperation.

Inspired by her Bram Stoker Award-winning story “Magdala Amygdala,” Lucy A. Snyder delivers a cosmic tale about the planet’s disastrous transformation ... and what we become after.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A hideously gory, kink-fueled, feminist cosmic horror apocalypse novel that should be on the top of everyone’s reading list.”—Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Ararat and Road of Bones

“Snyder’s bold and succinct descriptions create a visceral aura of terror and desperation. Readers will feel dread as they’re pulled along on this thrilling ride.”—Publishers Weekly

"This is a book for horror aficionados to exult in. It’s seamlessly constructed, frequently funny, joyfully queer, and unapologetically gross, with plot twists that feel both wholly unexpected and inevitable."—Booklist (starred review)

Dark reflection on society

Snyder’s book is a disturbing and humorous reflection on the deep divisions in our society using a supercharged pandemic to draw a line in the sand. If there’s a moral to this novel it is that our individual selfishness, in the face of a boundless pandemic, will result in the virus winning the war.

Woah!

I was really into each character and enjoyed how they all sort of intersected at different points. I was not prepared for the ending at all!! Left me wanting more, I really enjoyed listening/reading this one; it felt unique and intriguing!

oooo wow

so at the beginning the storyline did come out as disjointed but it worked with my ADHD and I actually liked it. I'm kind of bummed like I really want more to the story

Horrific in a good way

This started off as a pandemic type novel and quickly spiraled into something else. Told in three sections, each by a different woman, with different viewpoints, but the same overall timeline. I was not prepared, and that was kind of great. I didn’t have any expectations going in, and so when a plot point threw me a bit, it was just part of the ride. This had a lot of gore, and it honestly fascinated me. It just took me a while to listen to. The narrator did a great job, it was just something about hearing some of those words spoken that made me have to set it down and go get a palate cleanser at points. Overall, a good book if you are a fan of horror!

There’s a new virus in town, and while people are going back to their Covid protocol, it’s nothing like it. It is a GI bug that you literally start bleeding out from the inside. And IF you survive it? You are different. You can’t eat the same, you can’t do every day tasks the same. There are different classifications of those survivors based on what their new, preferred, diet is based on. Type 2 and type 3: it sounds so innocuous, but things are quickly spiraling out of control and the government isn’t in as much control as they think they are.

it's fucked up

This book will make you cringe and gasp and nearly vomit. Horror on a whole new level.

The sudden shift in Act 2 that completely draws you in.

Act 1 moves slow but the build up does pay off once you get to Act 3.

Zombie Kink Erotica

Not trying to knock it. But definitely not for me. The “modernness” of the story was also personally off-putting.

I’m sorry I’m a man lol

Honestly…I was entertained. That said, of course there were parts that had me rolling my eyes, but I won’t dock points for that because it makes the characters believable. I thought it was fun.

Yeah..

Such a fun enjoyable ride, could have done without the constant sex, but never the less It was enjoyable and fast paced. loved the majority of it. great body horror

Not for me

This felt like the author tried waaaay too hard to add things in. The story was chaotic, ridiculous, and felt unnecessarily graphic. Several components of the story felt like they jumped around and didn’t tie up well.
