Women in Horror Month: Spotlight on Kandisha Press
by Janine Pipe
It may have been naive of me, but until I started seriously writing, reading and reviewing horror and specifically indie horror, I hadn’t really paid that much attention to the discrepancy between male and female writers in this genre. That would be in the main because up until recently, the vast majority of my horror books were still from my teens and most of them were King, Koontz and R L...
Janelle's Horror Book of the Week- February 1st, 2021
BOOK OF THE WEEK-February 1, 2021
INFERNAL by Cheryl Low is one of those books where I scratched my head and thought, “what took me so long?” My friend Matt Redmon gifted this book to me for my birthday last year, and I finally decided to pick it up. And just in time for Women in Horror Month!

This is my very first reading experience with Molly Tanzer. Ashley and I picked this book out as a read along for our curated horror book club, Night Worms. It came highly recommended to us by some authors who write urban/dark fantasy/horror: Alan Baxter, Chuck Wendig, and Seanan McGuire. New Year, New Fear!
After finishing this book last night, I would conclude that it's horror-adjacent. I don't want to create any false hope or expectations. It straddles a few different genres, mainly dark fantasy, historical fiction, and maybe a touch of...
