Praise for A.G. Slatter:
"Angela plays by her own rules. She's fantastic"
Hilarie Burton-Morgan, actress and author of Grimoire Girl
"Slatter writes witches like none other, and her newest is a darkling feast, jewelled and blood-stained, rich with secrets and seething with unbearable power."
Cassandra Khaw, author of The Salt Grows Heavy
“Harrowing and beautiful, this is the grim, fairy-tale gothic you’ve been waiting for... Don’t miss it!”
Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Road of Bones and The House of Last Resort
“Part fantasy adventure, part dark fairytale, and all sharp teeth as the latest of her bright, fierce heroines is forced to grapple with the bonds of family, legacy, and love in order to save her world. I eagerly await the next book in the Sourdough universe!”
Genevieve Gornichec, author of The Witch’s Heart and The Weaver and the Witch Queen
"Slatter nestles stories within stories, immersing readers in a richly imagined world, and leading them on a journey full of unexpected twists and turns. This is an expertly woven tale of intrigue, magic, family, and righting old wrongs."
A.C. Wise, author of Wendy, Darling
"When I reviewed A.G. (Angela) Slatter's 2022 novel The Path of Thorns, I said she was one of the best contemporary fantasists in the field. But I was wrong; my vision was too narrow. Angela is simply one of the best contemporary writers of fiction, regardless of genre... The Briar Book of the Dead is everything I love about Slatter's fiction: the craft, the passion for narrative, and the foregrounding of strong, smart, singular women. More, please."
