So much more than the horror story it may sound like. This is The Thing meets The Alienist, and to call it merely horror is a disservice . . . So unique and utterly assured, I will follow this writer anywhere going forward. -- Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl A wonderful new entry to Gothic science fiction, impeccably clever and atmospheric. Think Wuthering Heights . . . with worms! -- Tamsyn Muir, author of Gideon the Ninth Leech isnt like anything Ive read before. Superb writing, interesting and fresh ideas, skilful execution. Highly recommended. Ill be reading anything Hiron Ennes writes from now on -- Tade Thompson, author of Rosewater What a unique book! Surprising turns and staggering ideas all woven together by beautiful writing. This is one to remember -- Tim Lebbon, author of The Silence I didnt know a book could perfectly convey the concept of a distributed intelligence, alive and aware of each of its proxies, but Leech is proof anything is possible in good hands -- Cassandra Khaw, author of Nothing But Blackened Teeth If youve ever wondered what would happen if David Cronenberg and Edgar Allen Poe bumped into each other at the same parasitological conference, heres your answer -- Peter Watts, author of Blindsight Ennes spins classic Gothic horror and fascinating science fiction into a creation that is disturbing, horrifying, and impossible to turn away from -- Brom, author of the Sandman Slim series Leech is wonderful, with a truly unique protagonist, a goeey, squicky post-apocalyptic setting, and a dose of Gormenghast gothic. Perfect for fans of Gideon the Ninth and The Traitor -- Django Wexler, author of The Shadow Campaigns series A tense, disturbing work of Gothic horror that embraces difficult themes of power, abuse, agency and raw survival in an unforgettably apocalyptic setting. Gory, shocking, raw and utterly humane -- Kameron Hurley, author of The Light Brigade Hiron Ennes's debut is an intricate, well-observed marooned-community thriller -- The Times Uniquely compelling -- Financial Times
