Reviews
"Chilling in its intimacy, this tale of monsters and monstrous love is a gorgeous gothic treat. I drank up every delicious word." -- Jennifer Thorne, USA Today bestselling author of Diavola and Lute
"Johanna van Veen's artful and cunning use of the sublime will pull you into a sisterly web of terror, beauty, and horror, all of it sensual and dripping with the idea that death should be a kind of mutilation." -- Nicholas Belardes, author of The Deading
"Gruesome, at times unhinged and deeply beautiful, Blood on Her Tongue is morbid in the best sense of the word. A vital addition to the gothic genre that will make you shudder with both pleasure and fear." -- Katrina Monroe, author of Through the Midnight Door
"Johanna Van Veen weaves a seductively gruesome horror yarn with Blood on Her Tongue. Every page is dripping with gothic dread and undead yearning, and I couldn't devour it fast enough." -- Brian McAuley, author of Curse of the Reaper
"Dark, visceral, and deliciously disturbing--van Veen has woven a tale that feels like a brand new 19th century classic, bristling with gothic horror and mounting dread." -- C. E. McGill, author of Our Hideous Progeny
"A new gothic masterpiece. Blood on Her Tongue is decadent, full of gore and rot, and viscerally, relentlessly engaging. I devoured this one. Once you've tasted a little, you'll need more, then more, then more..." -- CJ Leede, author of Maeve Fly and American Rapture
"Johanna van Veen embroiders a rich tapestry of dark secrets and disturbing monsters, then delights in smothering you with it. A chilly gothic horror story that begs to be read by a roaring fire while the wind howls outside your window." -- Josh Winning, author of Heads Will Roll
"Johanna van Veen takes up the mantle of Stoker and Le Fanu with this seductive tale of hunger, transgression, and the violent power of sisterhood. Sumptuous, disturbing, and sensual, Blood on Her Tongue is queer gothic fiction at its audacious best. A bloody and decadent feast of a novel." -- Elliott Gish, author of Grey Dog
"A heightened experience for gothic horror fans. Johanna Van Heen indulges the audience with atmospheric tension and deeply flawed yet emotionally compelling characters. The taste of blood becomes sharper with every page." -- Bram Stoker Finalist Vincent Tirado, author of We Came to Welcome You
"Immersive and disturbing, Blood on Her Tongue etches itself into your mind and leaves behind a permanent mark. Fans of modern gothic and masterful prose, look no further." -- Marcus Kliewer author of We Used to Live Here
"Blood on Her Tongue is a lush gothic fever dream, a tale of love, violence and spiraling madness that will linger long after you've read the last page." -- Christina Henry, author of The House that Horror Built
