Alexis Henderson is a speculative fiction writer with a penchant for dark fantasy, witchcraft, and horror. She grew up in one of America's most haunted cities, Savannah, which instilled in her a life-long love of ghost stories. When she doesn't have her nose buried in a book, you can find her painting or watching horror movies with her feline familiar. Her debut novel, the acclaimed and bestselling The Year of the Witching, was shortlisted for two Good Reads Awards. Her second, House of Hunger, confirmed her place as one of the best new writers of Gothic fiction and was also Good Reads Awards shortlisted. Alexis lives in the USA.
An unforgettable feast of decadence and depravity, House of Hunger
cements Henderson's place as one of the great gothic writers of our
generation. Readers will be absolutely spellbound by this sinister,
scintillating tale.
The kind of book that deserves to be devoured. Deliciously brutal,
hypnotic, and brimming with ravenous malice, Alexis Henderson has
crafted a bloody, sapphic fever dream of a novel and I can't wait
to read it again.
Has something of the grotesque novelty of Mervyn Peake's
Gormenghast, tinged red by a Clive Barker-esque blending of blood
and sex . . . a lurid, luscious debauch of a book.
*GUARDIAN*
A gory gem of a story that sinks in its teeth and won't let up,
House of Hunger proves that Alexis Henderson is one of the best
Gothic writers out there.
A dark, blood-filled fantasy that's dripping in gothic vibes . . .
dread and desire simmer from the pages of this unsettling and
lushly written horror. It'll have you simulatenously wanting to
look away and keep reading.
