Sister, Maiden, Monster

“Absolutely recommended for readers of the cosmic and gloriously horrific.” ―Seanan McGuire, New York TImes bestselling author

Sister, Maiden, Monster
is a visceral story set in the aftermath of our planet’s disastrous transformation and told through the eyes of three women trying to survive the nightmare, from Bram Stoker Award-winning author Lucy A. Snyder.


A virus tears across the globe, transforming its victims in nightmarish ways. As the world collapses, dark forces pull a small group of women together.

Erin, once quiet and closeted, acquires an appetite for a woman and her brain. Why does forbidden fruit taste so good?

Savannah, a professional BDSM switch, discovers a new turn-on: committing brutal murders for her eldritch masters.

Mareva, plagued with chronic tumors, is too horrified to acknowledge her divine role in the coming apocalypse, and as her growths multiply, so too does her desperation.

Inspired by her Bram Stoker Award-winning story “Magdala Amygdala,” Lucy A. Snyder delivers a cosmic tale about the planet’s disastrous transformation ... and what we become after.

What a journey. The things that annoyed me while reading it I now can't remember. But the story will stick with me. I love how everything tied in together and went from normal to bat shit crazy real quick.

It was good, but it was less horror and more gross factor for me.

I went into this book with very little background on what it was about. All I knew is that everyone loved it and it was seriously messed up, which I think made me enjoy this even more because I had no idea exactly how crazy and messed up this would get! The story is told from three perspectives: Erin a tech worker for a big company who contracts the new and deadly PVG virus, a BDSM expert named Savannah who also contracts it, and Mareva a coworker of Erin who has an even bigger role to play in this whole cosmic plague. The three perspectives meld together perfectly and it was such an interesting way to reveal key details of this new virus and slowly piece together the story. It starts with a bang and just gets crazier and crazier to the point where it’s just all out madness. Tons of gore, body horror, monsters, and fucked up things occur in this book so I highly suggest you only read this if you’re ready for some truly gruesome content. If you’re a horror lover read this immediately! It lives up to all the hype and I absolutely loved it. Especially the LQBTQ representation and the strong female characters that are all involved in this cosmic apocalypse.
