About this listen
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
A blood-soaked and nauseating triumph that cuts like a scalpel and reads like your darkest nightmare.
New York Times bestselling author Andrew Joseph White returns with the transgressive gothic horror of our time!
Mors vincit omnia. Death conquers all.
London, 1883. The Veil between the living and dead has thinned. Violet-eyed mediums commune with spirits under the watchful eye of the Royal Speaker Society, and sixteen-year-old trans, autistic Silas Bell would rather rip out his violet eyes than become an obedient Speaker wife.
After a failed attempt to escape an arranged marriage, Silas is diagnosed with Veil sickness—a mysterious disease sending violet-eyed women into madness—and shipped away to Braxton’s Finishing School and Sanitorium. When the ghosts of missing students start begging Silas for help, he decides to reach into Braxton’s innards and expose its guts to the world—so long as the school doesn’t break him first.
Featuring an autistic trans protagonist in a historical setting, Andrew Joseph White’s much-anticipated sophomore novel does not back down from exposing the violence of the patriarchy and the harm inflicted on trans youth who are forced into conformity.

Sixteen-year-old trans boy Benji is on the run from the cult that raised him—the fundamentalist sect that unleashed Armageddon and decimated the world’s population. Desperately, he searches for a place where the cult can’t get their hands on him, or more importantly, on the bioweapon they infected him with. But when cornered by monsters born from the destruction, Benji is rescued by a group of teens from the local Acheson LGBTQ+ Center, affectionately known as the ALC. The ALC’s leader, Nick, is gorgeous, autistic, and a deadly shot, and he knows Benji’s darkest secret.

Effy Sayre has always believed in fairy tales. Haunted by visions of the Fairy King since childhood, she’s had no choice. Her tattered copy of Angharad—Emrys Myrddin’s epic about a mortal girl who falls in love with the Fairy King, then destroys him—is the only thing keeping her afloat. So when Myrddin’s family announces a contest to redesign the late author’s estate, Effy feels certain it’s her destiny. But musty, decrepit Hiraeth Manor is an impossible task, and its residents are far from welcoming.

Mar is a transmasculine nonbinary teen pirate hiding a magical ability to manipulate fire and ice. But their magic isn't enough to reverse a wicked bargain made by their father, and now el Diablo has come to collect his payment: the soul of Mar's father and the entire crew of their ship. When Mar is miraculously rescued by the sole remaining pirate crew in the Caribbean, el Diablo returns to give them a choice: give up their soul to save their father by the harvest moon, or never see him again. But Mar refuses to make a bargain, and there's no way their magic is a match for el Diablo.

Story
It's not safe for anyone alone in the woods. There are predators that come out at night: critters and coyotes, snakes and wolves. But the woman in the red jacket has no choice. Not since the Crisis came, decimated the population, and sent those who survived fleeing into quarantine camps that serve as breeding grounds for death, destruction, and disease. She is just a woman trying not to get killed in a world that doesn't look anything like the one she grew up in, the one that was perfectly sane and normal and boring until three months ago.

perfect queer horror
this book was simply amazing and made even more so by the amazing narration. the atmosphere is haunting and the personality of Silas is so well done with how he interacts with his environment and how he thinks.
as a queer trans person myself, I've never felt so represented in a story. the way each is explained and worded is so beautifully exact to how I myself feel. I can't recommend this book enough

LOVE LOVE LOVE
I was gripped the whole time! I’ve only recently dabbled into horror and this has shown me how much I’m into gore. The characters were also all well done. Big fan of the author and have his other book on my bookshelf to be read.

Wow.
Genuinely an amazing book. The horrors are certainly horrifying. Medical horror has always been one of my more squeamish topics, so you can imagine how strange it is to hear so much comfort taken in it. The intrusive thoughts of “this thing that dictates my life can be removed” brings comfort not only to our main character but to me as the “reader” as well.

an excellent body horror experience
As a transmasc autistic with severe anxiety, it is extremely rare to hear almost my exact point of view in a character. the biggest departure being surgery and human anatomy as a special interest.
This book is brutally honest without engaging in torture porn and is a thrilling experience. I do not know if it would hit someone who does not view the world through this lens as hard, but I hope it would instill a spirit of empathy. The horrific practices centered around a fantastical premise still happen for different reasons, even today.
But take care, this books trigger warnings should be taken very seriously.

I love this book smm
amazing book, I love Daphne and I relate a lot with Silas being a trans man myself. Plus the voice of Raphael Corkhill is amazing, it made the experience ten times better, the emotion was so much in the tender moments, in the angry moments and especially when the rabbit was talking. I always love gore of any kind. I love Andrew's books so much, they are just written so weelll :)

horrifically good
This was so disturbing and so well written that even when I was cringing and squirming with my feelings on the awful things being done, I literally couldn't stop listening. It was such a dark story, but the sprinkles of hope and the self-discovery and the connections made it beautiful.

I love this book and author so much
I love this goddamn books so much. It is diverse, detailed, and accurate. It is a fantasy, but I was never bored during the story and dreaded when I had to put it down to go on with my day. Please read it!

On par with Wolfgang von Goethe
I read a little bit about the author before I started the book. I was concerned, right off the bat, that the hype might just be because he is a trans author. I'm pleased to say that that is not the case. The words roll off the tongue in the most beautiful of ways. The pros are comparable to Wolfgang von Goethe. I'm not kidding.
However, in terms of content, I found a large part of the book to be a diatribe on how it feels to be a man in a woman's body, searching for way way to be expressed. This Was represented in about 80% of the novel. The other 20% was the horror story.
This made me wonder if the author is capable of writing about anything other than their personal journey. There are a lot of young authors these days that fill their pages with their own personal identity story, book after book after book. I hope that is not the case with this author. The talent is too strong.
