(0 reviews)
4.99 USD
Tade Thompson returns to his "bloody exploration of of identity and self in a changed world" (Publishers Weekly) in The Survival of Molly Southbourne.

Who was Molly Southbourne? What did she leave behind?

A burnt-out basement. A name stained in blood. Bodies that remember murder, one of them left alive. A set of rules that no longer apply.

Molly Southbourne is alive. If she wants to survive, she'll need to run, hide, and be ready to fight. There are people who remember her, who know what she is and what she's done. Some want her alive, some want her dead, and all hold a piece to the puzzles in her head. Can Molly escape them, or will she confront the bloody history that made her?

Praise for this book

"Thompson’s terrifying and poignant follow-up to 2017’s The Murders of Molly Southbourne poses thoughtful questions about identity and what it means to be human, and packs in all the tension of a crackerjack thriller." —Publishers Weekly

"Just as chilling as its predecessor, exploring identity and nature in a captivatingly bloody manner. This distinctive horror novella will linger in readers' minds long after they finish." —Library Journal

"Give this to readers who like stories that cross the borders between horror, dystopian tales, and science fiction." —Booklist

"A must read for any lover of dark fantasy fiction." —Aurealis

Praise for The Murders of Molly Southbourne

"The Murders of Molly Southbourne is so strange and well-written and well-conceived. I read it in one sitting and yet it follows me around wherever I go. I loved it." —Paul Tremblay, author of Disappearance at Devil's Rock

"A bold outpouring of flesh and crisis at once horrifying and familiar." —The New York Times

"Inventive, chilling, and professionally rendered." —Elizabeth Bear, author of Karen Memory

"This premise fleshes out the strangeness and the grace of the human condition as well as anything I've read." —Stephen Graham Jones, author of Mongrels and Mapping the Interior

"Tade Thompson's writing is as inexorable as a march to the executioner's block, layered with cold dread and an exquisite understanding of body horror." —Cassandra Khaw, author of the Persons Non Grata series

"The Murders of Molly Southbourne is bloody, quiet, haunting, and sharp—a book worth savoring." —Max Gladstone, author of the Craft Sequence

"By turns disturbing, fascinating and heartbreaking, and mesmerizing from first to last." —Simon Bestwick, author of the Black Road series and The Feast Of All Souls

"A story to make your skin crawl and your veins feel full of dark secrets." —Sophia McDougall, author of the Romanitas trilogy, Mars Evacuees and Space Hostages
