Thompson's terrifying and poignant follow-up to 2017's The Murders of Molly Southbourne poses thoughtful questions about identity and what it means to be human, and packs in all the tension of a crackerjack thriller. --Publishers Weekly Praise for The Murders of Molly Southbourne The Murders of Molly Southbourne is so strange and well-written and well-conceived. I read it in one sitting and yet it follows me around wherever I go. I loved it. --Paul Tremblay, author of Disappearance at Devil's Rock A bold outpouring of flesh and crisis at once horrifying and familiar. --The New York Times Inventive, chilling, and professionally rendered. --Elizabeth Bear, author of Karen Memory This premise fleshes out the strangeness and the grace of the human condition as well as anything I've read. --Stephen Graham Jones, author of Mongrels and Mapping the Interior Tade Thompson's writing is as inexorable as a march to the executioner's block, layered with cold dread and an exquisite understanding of body horror. --Cassandra Khaw, author of the Persons Non Grata series The Murders of Molly Southbourne is bloody, quiet, haunting, and sharp--a book worth savoring. --Max Gladstone, author of the Craft Sequence This bloody exploration of identity and self in a changed world will stay with readers long after they finish the last page. --Publishers Weekly A bloody, intriguing puzzle of a novella. --Kirkus An enormously vivid, enormously peculiar novel... compellingly written. --Locus Excellent, bloody, unsettling. --The Book Smugglers The Murders of Molly Southbourne reaches deep into the heart of existence and drags our fears into the sunlight. An excellent, terrifying read. --Fran Wilde, award-winning author of Updraft, Cloudbound, and Horizon Tade Thompson weaves a subtle, surreal tale of life, death, love and damnation around an absolutely unforgettable heroine. Molly will terrify you, even as she breaks your heart. --Stephanie Saulter, author of the (R)Evolution books By turns disturbing, fascinating and heartbreaking, and mesmerizing from first to last. --Simon Bestwick, author of the Black Road series and The Feast Of All Souls Viciously real. Chillingly absurd. There's a visceral, bloody logic to Tade Thompson's tale of self murder. --Jon Courtenay Grimwood, author of The Fallen Blade A story to make your skin crawl and your veins feel full of dark secrets. --Sophia McDougall, author of the Romanitas trilogy, Mars Evacuees and Space Hostages A darkly compelling, offbeat tale punctuated by memorable characters and an endlessly fascinating mystery. The dark imagination of Tade Thompson is a wondrous thing to behold. --Maurice Broaddus, author of Buffalo Soldier A novella that showcases the emotional depth of this writer, Tade Thompson's The Murders of Molly Southbourne is utterly compelling, dark and disturbing. --Kaaron Warren, author of Slights
