Winter Children

Winter Children and Other Chilling Tales collects some of Angela Slatter s finest horror stories to date. From the Lovecraftian laments of The Song of Sighs and Only the Dead and the Moonstruck to the uncanny notes of The October Widow and the stunning new The Red Forest , it s clear that Slatter is, in the words of Stephen Jones, a powerful and eloquent voice in horror fiction. Each tale is a darkly crafted gem.
