“What with poisonous relationships, parasite houses, and ghost brides, Nothing But Blackened Teeth is a really bad idea for a wedding, and a really great idea for a nightmare-on-the-page. This was a wonderful haunted-house story, modern characterizations in compelling tension with a lyrically beautiful ancient Japanese residence." -Kij Johnson, winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy Awards
I know I did.” -Stephen Graham Jones, author of The Only Good Indians “This is Hill House for this century, this is Belasco House with people we’ve known since third grade, and it’s got a smile so wicked you might just have to grin along with it. This story of a wedding at a malevolent manor is as unexpected and delightful as her poetic approach to horror, and I loved every sharp, delicious twist of it.” -Kevin Hearne, New York Times bestselling author of the Iron Druid Chronicles “Khaw is a prose wizard who has quickly become an auto-buy for me. Don’t miss it!” -Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Ararat and Red Hands Nothing but Blackened Teeth is mesmerizing. “Reading Cassandra Khaw is akin to watching a nightmare ballet, full of beauty and elegance, pain and fragility, and breathless terror. Cassandra Khaw is a master of the terrifying tale.” -Sam J Miller, Nebula-Award-winning author of Blackfish City “This book burns and crackles and slithers, its prose as beautiful and deadly as its horror. “Delicate and disgusting.Each page holds an image more finely drawn and disturbing than the last.” -T. “Khaw's got a sterling premise, enduring lore, and the fresh talent to voice it.” -Josh Malerman, New York Times bestselling author of Bird Box “Khaw’s tale seems to come at you straight, setting up your story expectations, but then twists the knife at the last minute, leaving you reeling, but wanting more.” -Richard Kadrey, New York Times bestselling author of the Sandman Slim series It's sharp, playful, and nasty as hell.” -Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts and Survivor Song Nothing But Blackened Teeth reads like the ghost-punk noir you never knew you needed. “Imagine chucking House on Haunted Hill, Japanese folklore, Clive Barker, and Kathy Acker into a literary blender. Absolutely recommended.” -Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of Every Heart a Doorway It is beautiful and it is brutal and it is heartbroken. “This is a glorious poem, a slow-motion collapse leading to the inevitable haunting. Jemisin, New York Times bestselling author of The Fifth Season “Brutally delicious! Khaw is a master of teasing your senses, and then terrorizing them!” -N.K.
