Language: English Table of ContentsReviewsPriest kills as a stylist. -- Charles de Lint Chock-full of chilling details and soaked to the bone with suspense. -- Southern Living on Not Flesh Nor Feathers Well-written, quick paced and detailed, every page is a shivering delight. -- BookPage on Not Flesh Nor Feathers Cherie Priest is to dark fantasy what fresh roasted coffee is to mornings: simply essential. --Paul Goat Allen on Wings to the Kingdom A remarkably assured debut, a creepy modern-day Southern gothic that doesn't rely on cliche but delivers an emotional, powerful tale of self-discovery and the supernatural. -- San Francisco Chronicle on Four and Twenty Blackbirds Breathlessly readable, palpably atmospheric and compellingly suspenseful, Four and Twenty Blackbirds is a considerable debut. It's written with great control and fluency, and it looks like the start of quite a career. --Ramsey Campbell [Priest's] voice is rich, earthy, soulful, and deliciously southern as she weaves a disturbing yarn like a master! Awesome--gives you goosebumps! --L.A. Banks on Four and Twenty Blackbirds Priest has done for Chattanooga, Tennessee, what Anne Rice and Poppy Z. Brite have done for New Orleans. --Fangoria Beautifully detailed.... Wings to the Kingdom is more firmly based in the physical world than Blackbirds was, but it's every bit as fascinating. Once again, Priest succeeds in making her story both straightforward and exquisitely strange. -- Green Man Review A taut, well conceived, and skillfully executed thriller by one of the brightest (darkest?) of recent newcomers to the horror field. -- Critical Mass on Not Flesh Nor Feathers Priest kills as a stylist. -- Charles de Lint <br> Chock-full of chilling details and soaked to the bone with suspense. -- Southern Living on Not Flesh Nor Feathers <br> Well-written, quick paced and detailed, every page is a shivering delight. -- BookPage on Not Flesh Nor Feathers <br> Cherie Priest is to dark fantasy what fresh roasted coffee is to mornings: simply essential. --Paul Goat Allen on Wings to the Kingdom <br> A remarkably assured debut, a creepy modern-day Southern gothic that doesn't rely on cliche but delivers an emotional, powerful tale of self-discovery and the supernatural. -- San Francisco Chronicle on Four and Twenty Blackbirds <br> Breathlessly readable, palpably atmospheric and compellingly suspenseful, Four and Twenty Blackbirds is a considerable debut.
