๐ฅฃ ๐ฉธ The Thickest Soup Youโve Got and Other Tales of Culinary Horror by Nikki R. Leigh
Check out this awesome quote from fellow Slashic Horror author, Stephanie Sanders-Jacob, Author - author of Pyramidia.
โLeigh has perfected the recipe for stories that will leave you drooling. Iโll forever be distrustful of chefs and in awe of Nikki R. Leigh.โ
We know Steph has good taste, but speaking ofโฆ
๐ WHATโS ON THE MENU?
This collection, told in twelve stories, encompasses tales situated in a variety of culinary-related worlds. The themes run the gamut of horror, and underlying tones are anti-capitalist, transgressive at times, comedically unsettling at others, and unapologetically q***r.
An ode to food and other culinary-related settings, this collection plays with the horror recipe to produce stories that run between deeply unsettling to quiet to sometimes campy and bizarre. This manuscript includes stories about: a famous chef with a maniacal obsession with recreating memories out of signature dishes, a drug-induced demonic reality TV show that puts contestants through the ringer, blood farms, fungal wormholes, corrupt canneries, and monstrous gods who season their soups with human suffering, among others.
Inside youโll find unhinged chefs, untapped food sources in the deepest, darkest corners of the earth and in space. Youโll heat things up with tales of greed, of love, of systematic transgressions. Of mystery and gods and the perils of media. Of exploration and family and dishes best served cold.
I hope you like the taste of iron. Open wide, and donโt forget to chew.
