Atmospheric. Macabre. We revisit the troubled house of Usher in this uniquely textured tale . . . a hair-raising blend of gloom and madness. A clever homage to a classic.
If you are a beloved fan of Edgar Allan Poe, gothic horror, or have ever been fascinated by the real-life fungal parasite Cordyceps that can essentially turn unwitting insects into walking zombies . . . this is a must-read for you!
I’d like to thank NetGalley and Tor Nightfire for an advanced copy of What Moves the Dead for my unbiased evaluation. 3.5 stars
