I swear I'm still shuddering. A fantastic read!-R.L. Stine, author of Goosebumps and Fear Street Like The Revenant but with an insistent supernatural whisper.

In this gripping, atmospheric reimagining of that dark tale, Katsu has created a deeply unsettling and truly terrifying masterpiece. -Jennifer McMahon, author of Burntown and The Winter People An uneasy, nauseous, slow-burning tale that marries historical fiction with a hint of the supernatural. Great detailing; colorful characterization; some supremely ominous stuff, but always reined in at the final moment to rack up the tension even more. Loved it! -Joanne Harris, author of Different Class and Chocolat The Hunger is a bold and brilliant novel, heavy with foreboding and dread, and with a rich vein of humanity at its core.
