A brave, timely and important book. - Gareth L. Powell, author of Stars and Bones Astonishing and totally unique, Gemma Amor writes so fearlessly that it feels as if she were baring her soul in Full Immersion. An intricately crafted and superbly rendered vision of horror-fantasy from one of the genre's most brilliant and devastating voices. - Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke A deep dive into the horrors of depression, Full Immersion takes readers on a harrowing journey into the character of Magpie, a woman grappling with a horrifying history she can barely remember, now lost within herself. There, a host of terrors play out in unexpected, gruesome ways. Told through duelling POVs, Ms. Amor's writing is tense and sharp, reminiscent of Kealan Patrick Burke, Jeanette Winterson and Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Fans of both psychological and body horror will find much to enjoy here! - D.K. Stone, author of Fall Of Night Powered by dread from the very beginning, Full Immersion is a full-throated scream in the heart. Gemma Amor wields an ever-tightening emotional vice, constantly questioning and challenging the malevolent unreality we accept as our lives. A harrowing inward odyssey. - Hailey Piper, author of Queen of Teeth Raw, personal, confrontational, and timely, Gemma Amor bares her soul in full for a book that will rock you to your core. Charting a metaphysical landscape of pain and real suffering, Full Immersion is nothing less than a klaxon call confirming one of the most daring and fearless voices in contemporary fiction. - Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Kin and Sour Candy With Full Immersion, Gemma Amor offers you an incredible journey into the dangers and possibilities of the human mind. It's shocking and unnerving and heartbreaking and, ultimately, hopeful in a way that makes you want to jump for joy. It will reawaken you to the possibilities - and depths - of our souls. - Nick Kolakowski, author of Absolute Unit and Boise Longpig Hunting Club PRAISE FOR GEMMA AMOR The bravest book you'll read all year. Harrowing, yes, but necessarily so. As empowering as it is powerful. Not only does the book benefit a crucial cause, the stories are extraordinary, written by more than a dozen paramount voices in horror. Sometimes a book illuminates as it entertains; We Are Wolves is that rare find. - Josh Malerman, New York Times best selling author of Bird Box and Malorie, on We Are Wolves It pulls no punches, asks for no quarter, and will leave you breathless. I loved it. - Brian Keene, best-selling author and World Horror Grandmaster Award-winner, on We Are Wolves Gemma delivers!
