About this product
Product Information
Nat Cassidy's highly commercial, debut horror novel Mary: An Awakening of Terror , blends Midsommar with elements of American Psycho and a pinch of I'll Be Gone in the Dark . Best Horror of 2022-- Esquire, Paste Magazine, CrimeRead Harper's Bazaar 15 Best Books for Spooky Season The Lineup Best Debut Horror Novels of 2022 American Writers Museum--Staff Recommendation Mary is a quiet, middle-aged woman doing her best to blend into the background. Unremarkable. Invisible. Unknown even to herself. But lately, things have been changing inside Mary. Along with the hot flashes and body aches, she can't look in a mirror without passing out, and the voices in her head have been urging her to do unspeakable things. Fired from her job in New York, she moves back to her hometown, hoping to reconnect with her past and inner self. Instead, visions of terrifying, mutilated specters overwhelm her with increasing regularity and she begins auto-writing strange thoughts and phrases. Mary discovers that these experiences are echoes of an infamous serial killer. Then the killings begin again. Mary's definitely going to find herself.

Reviews
Praise for Mary " Razor-sharp horror debut .... Cassidy expertly twists the invisibility and disposability of society's most vulnerable into qualities ideally suited to a terrifying avenging angel. It's as scary as it is smart." -- Publishers Weekly "This tale of horror is a good read-alike for Stephen King's Carrie and Paul Tremblay's A Head Full of Ghosts ."-- Booklist " Searing imagery. Immediate chills. Also, you see this cover?"--Rachel Harrison, author of Cackle " Operatic and tremendously unsettling , there's a dangerous current churning beneath the pages . . . a current that will carry you far away and forever change you the way all excellent books do. This is first class horror." --Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke "Who doesn't want to read the book equivalent of vampire Kathy Bates killing some hipsters in the fifth season of American Horror Story? Middle-aged women's rage is in this year , and I couldn't be happier."-- CrimeReads "All I can say is, it has haunted me since I read it, and I may have to re-read it again soon."-- Horrorble Books "Cassidy has given us a classic horror novel of a middle-aged woman tormented by all the little-town horrors of her past--those she can remember and those she is forced to remember. Who is Mary, or better yet, what is Mary? She has been called home to find out. A fine read."--Elizabeth Engstrom, author of When Darkness Loves Us "A collision of supernatural and real-life horrors, Nat Cassidy's Mary throbs with a relentlessly sinister energy . Packed with visceral shocks and quiet menace , breakneck storytelling and profound character work, Mary is absolutely riveting . I can't recommend it highly enough."--Jonathan Janz, author of The Siren and the Specter and The Raven " Mary, Mary, quite extraordinary... How does your novel grow? With pillow cases hiding sliced off faces, and porcelain dolls all in a row . With an acidic sense of humor more barbed than any cactus, Nat Cassidy's fast-paced Mary is a perfect blend of Stephen King's Dolores Claiborne and Frank De Felitta's Audrey Rose . This book goes out to all those bad seeds who have gone beyond their bloom and entered the twilight of their murderous lives."--Clay McLeod Chapman, author of The Remaking "Genuinely scary, and at times both heartfelt and heartbreaking, Mary is a powerhouse of a horror novel, with something important to say. We need more like this. Standing ovation!"--Brian Keene "Nat Cassidy's Mary is a bravura journey into horror , cults, and the estrangement of middle age. It's one BANANAS ride, by a very talented writer."--Sarah Langan " Congrats on a loud and bloody Mary . She's going to make herself heard and then some."--Kathe Koja, Praise for Mary " Razor-sharp horror debut ....

Immediate chills. Also, you see this cover?"--Rachel Harrison, author of Cackle " Gripping from the start. What begins in a bloodbath leads us through decades into a nightmare of cults, ghosts, and self-hatred, where great and terrible expectations await. Mary is a devastating threat made manifest. "--Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Queen of Teeth " Operatic and tremendously unsettling , there's a dangerous current churning beneath the pages . . . a current that will carry you far away and forever change you the way all excellent books do.

I can't recommend it highly enough."--Jonathan Janz, author of The Siren and the Specter and The Raven " Mary, Mary, quite extraordinary... How does your novel grow? With pillow cases hiding sliced off faces, and porcelain dolls all in a row . With an acidic sense of humor more barbed than any cactus, Nat Cassidy's fast-paced Mary is a perfect blend of Stephen King's Dolores Claiborne and Frank De Felitta's Audrey Rose . This book goes out to all those bad seeds who have gone beyond their bloom and entered the twilight of their murderous lives."--Clay McLeod Chapman, author of The Remaking "Genuinely scary, and at times both heartfelt and heartbreaking, Mary is a powerhouse of a horror novel, with something important to say. We need more like this. Standing ovation!"--Brian Keene "Nat Cassidy's Mary is a bravura journey into horror , cults, and the estrangement of middle age. It's one BANANAS ride, by a very talented writer."--Sarah Langan " Congrats on a loud and bloody Mary . She's going to make herself heard and then some."--Kathe Koja, Praise for Mary " Mary, Mary, quite extraordinary... How does your novel grow?

This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

This item came in exactly as pictured, and the seller posted immediately and was very gracious. I didn't ask for a partial refund. Why would I? I bought what I was expecting and received what I paid for the item. Not sure if I have bought from this seller before, but they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My future transactions with them will no doubt be perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.
