Brian McAuley recommends

Blood on Her Tongue (2025)
Johanna van Veen
"Johanna Van Veen weaves a seductively gruesome horror yarn with Blood on Her Tongue. Every page is dripping with gothic dread and undead yearning, and I couldn't devour it fast enough."

At Dark, I Become Loathsome (2025)
Eric LaRocca
"Only Eric LaRocca can dig you a warm grave, luring you into its layered depths with a symphony of self-loathing, and make you never want to crawl out of the dark."

And He Shall Appear (2024)
Kate Van Der Borgh
"The dread creeps up like a specter over your shoulder in this haunting debut that echoes notes of M. R. James down the shadowy halls of modern academia."
