How have I missed this until now?! It is fabulous! Horrifying on several levels, from the callous treatment of the dying/dead woman to the petty robbers to the emergence of the ultimate horror - just a tightly "woven" tour-de-force!

"Or perhaps it was the gossamer web spreading under the skin of his thigh, laced with tender black eggs, which drank lustily from the broth of his blood."

WHY?! WHY DID YOU WRITE THIS?! IT'S HORRIBLE!

...

Enjoy your week.

the descriptions are so visceral - I had such a bad taste in my mouth reading this, but you know, in a good way.

I enjoyed it. Won't spew out critism, unless you want it. Though overall I enjoyed it. I'm a sucker for creatures and body horror, so I loved the end.

This is Poe levels of terrifying. It's got the horrors of pre-industrial life mixed with monsters. Incredible. Thank you for such a glimpse into madness.

A hugely entertaining fable but with super-elegant prose to match its fairytale setting. Like the finest opening act in an A24 Eurohorror yet to be made...
