Sensual terror and monstrous love entwine in this brooding romantasy of one heroine's defiant will. The mood is gothic and unsettling, all creeping dread and forbidden hunger beneath the surface. For readers who like their monsters seductive, their heroines unbowed, and their darkness heavy enough to leave a mark, this opener promises atmosphere thick with peril and desire.
