Caitlin Starling recommends

Cold Eternity (2025)
S A Barnes
"Cold Eternity is the S.A. Barnes Creature Feature we've all been waiting for! Tense, nasty, and melancholic. The perfect combination of sleep deprivation and a space station monster!"

A Season of Monstrous Conceptions (2023)
Lina Rather
"An entrancing and transformative queer tale of cosmic horror, unbelonging, and self-definition."

They Drown Our Daughters (2022)
Katrina Monroe
"A haunting, intimately heartbreaking legacy of trauma and horror, soaked in seaspray and endlessly compelling. Once you hear the ocean's song, you won't be able to leave Cape Disappointment behind!"
