Waiting on Wednesday 10/06/21
Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!

What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher (July 12, 2022 by Tor Nightfire)
T. Kingfisher is on fire lately with all her recent and upcoming horror, not to mention a Poe retelling is definitely one I’ll have to get my hands on.
“From the award-winning author of The Twisted Ones comes a gripping and atmospheric retelling of Edgar Allan Poe’s classic “The Fall of the House of Usher.”
When Alex Easton, a retired soldier, receives word that their childhood friend Madeline Usher is dying, they race to the ancestral home of the Ushers in the remote countryside of Ruritania.
What they find there is a nightmare of fungal growths and possessed wildlife, surrounding a dark, pulsing lake. Madeline sleepwalks and speaks in strange voices at night, and her brother Roderick is consumed with a mysterious malady of the nerves.
Aided by a redoubtable British mycologist and a baffled American doctor, Alex must unravel the secret of the House of Usher before it consumes them all.”

I’ve tried her YA novella, Minor Mage (thanks Will), but haven’t yet tried one of her horror. I picked up The Hollow Places after reading you and Tammy’s reviews, so maybe I’ll start there. 🙂
