A dark, enchanted tale of feminine rage and feminine magic, and the secrets they hide in the woods and in their hearts... Hex House is a stunning debut from Amy Jane Stewart. -Christina Henry, author of Alice and The Place Where They Buried Your Heart
This is an accomplished tale of escape and return, secrets, lies and a house the reader won't forget in a hurry. A wonderfully dark, magical book. -Gemma Amor, author of Itch!
In Amy Jane Stewart's Hex House the line between saviour and sinner is horribly thin. A rich seam of rage sings through the bones of this novel. Hex House is a need answered. A home. A sanctuary. A horror. But also a kind of hope for the broken. Highly recommended. -A. G. Slatter, award-winning author of The Cold House
Hex House is a foundational text imbued with blood and absolute beauty. Amy Jane Stewart has flung the doors of the haunted house novel wide open and filled its rooms with fresh feminist folk horror, positively positioning herself as a cornerstone to the next generation of the genre. I want to live in her books. -Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
A stellar debut... Horrifying and magical in equal measure, you will devour this novel, and it might just devour you back. -FanFiAddict
A fierce debut. -Priya Sharma, World Fantasy Award winner for Pomegranates
Hex House is a tragic and enthralling story that thrusts you into an unexpected world from the very beginning. The haunting imagery makes this book a stand out. -V Castro, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Maria the Wanted
Filled with complex, intriguing characters, Hex House is a genuinely frightening novel which twists around you as you read to deny easy, empty redemption. I loved it. -Rym Kechacha, author of The Apple and the Pearl
Hex House is a dreamy modern-day fairy tale, suffused with magic, mystery, and a simmering darkness lurking just beneath the surface. As with all fairy tales, there is a lesson to be learned from its telling: a warning for all those who abuse power to harm the vulnerable. By turns joyful and horrifying, tender and savage, Hex House lets the monsters out to take their pound of flesh - catharsis has never tasted so sweet. -M. K. Hardy, author of The Needfire
A dark and beautifully written tale about power. Who has it? What would you be willing to do to get it? And once you have it, how might it corrupt you? -Rhiannon Grist, award-winning author of Home Sick
There's a house in the woods where the lost girls go, more Suspiria than cosy fairytale: Hex House is a gloriously violent, candid, propulsive take on female anger and revenge. I tore through it. -Ally Wilkes, Bram Stoker award-nominated author of All the White Spaces
A dread-filled fable of withered, broken spirits and of the rot, ruin that inevitably traps them. This haunting, deeply unsettling novel possesses all the eeriness and elegance of similar Gothic-tinged work (with some unpleasant ick factor) penned by Julia Armfield, Priya Sharma or T. Kingfisher. A stunning and remarkably compelling debut. -Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke
Beautifully idiosyncratic in its obsessions and cleverly, inescapably structured, Hex House is a tale of broken bodies and fragmented identities, a poignant meditation on the cyclical nature of violence and on the ethical and political significance of bearing witness to someone else's struggle. Powerful and propulsive, it burns bright, searing itself into the reader's imagination. -Andrea Morstabilini
Powerful, moving and wonderfully feminist, Hex House had me gripped from the outset. The characters and setting are so vivid that I literally lived and breathed this world as I flew to a twisted place where dark secrets held me captive. The concept is so original and so well executed that this really was a vicarious reading experience from start to finish. -Heather Davey, author of The Ghosts of Merry Hall
Amy Jane Stewart's Hex House is a supernatural revenge saga with a very real spine. It leads you down a dark path, bristling with malice, festering secrets, and the feminine urge to burn it all down. I loved it. -Verity Holloway, author of The Others of Edenwell
