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

"Snyder’s story follows three infected women; each is given a unique voice and perspective thanks to the vocal talents of Arielle DeLisle, Katherine Littrell, and Lindsey Dorcus."―Library Journal

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.

A Macmillan Audio production from Tor Nightfire.

Critic reviews

“A hideously gory, kink-fueled, feminist cosmic horror apocalypse novel that should be on the top of everyone’s reading list.”—Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Ararat and Road of Bones

“Snyder’s bold and succinct descriptions create a visceral aura of terror and desperation. Readers will feel dread as they’re pulled along on this thrilling ride.”—Publishers Weekly

"This is a book for horror aficionados to exult in. It’s seamlessly constructed, frequently funny, joyfully queer, and unapologetically gross, with plot twists that feel both wholly unexpected and inevitable."—Booklist (starred review)

I was really into each character and enjoyed how they all sort of intersected at different points. I was not prepared for the ending at all!! Left me wanting more, I really enjoyed listening/reading this one; it felt unique and intriguing!

so at the beginning the storyline did come out as disjointed but it worked with my ADHD and I actually liked it. I'm kind of bummed like I really want more to the story

oooo wow

Snyder’s book is a disturbing and humorous reflection on the deep divisions in our society using a supercharged pandemic to draw a line in the sand. If there’s a moral to this novel it is that our individual selfishness, in the face of a boundless pandemic, will result in the virus winning the war.

I fell in love this book from the opening pages. That first scene just connected with me and all of a sudden I needed to know what happened next. I will be listening to more of this author.

The story was very well done and the author did a great job reflecting a lot of things that weren't handled well during the pandemic as well as a lot of really infuriating societal issues.

Very good

This was a weird but really interesting story. The narrators did a great job. I was, however, disappointed by the ending. Too many unanswered questions, as if a series was in store. I couldn’t find a follow up story. So, kinda bummed about that.

Hmmm 🤨

Not trying to knock it. But definitely not for me. The “modernness” of the story was also personally off-putting.

This started off as a pandemic type novel and quickly spiraled into something else. Told in three sections, each by a different woman, with different viewpoints, but the same overall timeline. I was not prepared, and that was kind of great. I didn’t have any expectations going in, and so when a plot point threw me a bit, it was just part of the ride. This had a lot of gore, and it honestly fascinated me. It just took me a while to listen to. The narrator did a great job, it was just something about hearing some of those words spoken that made me have to set it down and go get a palate cleanser at points. Overall, a good book if you are a fan of horror!

There’s a new virus in town, and while people are going back to their Covid protocol, it’s nothing like it. It is a GI bug that you literally start bleeding out from the inside. And IF you survive it? You are different. You can’t eat the same, you can’t do every day tasks the same. There are different classifications of those survivors based on what their new, preferred, diet is based on. Type 2 and type 3: it sounds so innocuous, but things are quickly spiraling out of control and the government isn’t in as much control as they think they are.

Horrific in a good way

Over all enjoyable time binging this story. The first 1/2 really sucked me in with the rapid unraveling of the apocalyptic plot, the queer erotic scenes and the jumps in timeline. The 2nd 1/2 was a disappointment and it felt like the author took a cheap, lazy turn in adopting cliche and unimaginative narrative themes. I still recommend giving it a try if you love queer sci-fi /horror and want something fun to get lost in for a few hours.

Fun, trashy, gorey summer listen
