About the Book

Before God created the earth as we know it, the planet was home to a race of monsters. In order to prepare for humans, He either banished or killed most of these native creatures; but those who remain in exile have not forgotten. One ancient tale encourages their vengeance, speaking of an angel with the power to wipe out a quarter of the world's population. Together, the old ones form a plot to catch this being and use him to reassert their reign. But not every prophecy is a promise.Scattered throughout the globe a handful of unwilling heroes are preparing to intervene. One of these sits frozen in stone, mistaken for a statue and abandoned in a courtyard for 80 years. Though Nia finds it difficult to believe, that strange prison was her rescue - a cocoon that transformed and protected her until her story could truly begin.Fathom is an unapologetic mix of horror and urban fantasy that will appeal to fans of both genres. The resulting book is a sexy biblical monster story that will hold the attention of readers who appreciate a good fairy tale with an unusual point of view.

About the Author :
Cherie Priest, who made her debut with the Eden Moore series of Southern Gothic ghost stories that began with Four and Twenty Blackbirds, lives in Seattle, Washington.

Review :
"Priest kills as a stylist." --"Charles de Lint" "Chock-full of chilling details and soaked to the bone with suspense." --"Southern Living "on" Not Flesh Nor Feathers" "Well-written, quick paced and detailed, every page is a shivering delight." --"BookPage" on "Not Flesh Nor Feathers" "Cherie Priest is to dark fantasy what fresh roasted coffee is to mornings: simply essential." --Paul Goat Allen on "Wings to the Kingdom" "A remarkably assured debut, a creepy modern-day Southern gothic that doesn't rely on cliche but delivers an emotional, powerful tale of self-discovery and the supernatural." --"San Francisco"" Chronicle "on "Four and Twenty Blackbirds" "Breathlessly readable, palpably atmospheric and compellingly suspenseful, "Four and Twenty Blackbirds" is a considerable debut. It's written with great control and fluency, and it looks like the start of quite a career." --Ramsey Campbell "[Priest's] voice is rich, earthy, soulful, and deliciously southern as she weaves a disturbing yarn like a master! Awesome--gives you goosebumps!" --L.A. Banks on "Four and Twenty Blackbirds" "Priest has done for Chattanooga, Tennessee, what Anne Rice and Poppy Z. Brite have done for New Orleans." "--Fangoria ""Beautifully detailed.... "Wings to the Kingdom" is more firmly based in the physical world than "Blackbirds" was, but it's every bit as fascinating. Once again, Priest succeeds in making her story both straightforward and exquisitely strange." --"Green Man Review ""A taut, well conceived, and skillfully executed thriller by one of the brightest (darkest?) of recent newcomers to the horror field." --"Critical Mass" on "Not Flesh Nor Feathers"
