Weird Tales of Terror Praise:"...well-crafted, potent material...like Joyce Carol Oates as directed by David Cronenberg." - Hellnotes Praise for S#65533;phera's work:"If Poppy Z. Brite and Nancy Kilpatrick turn your cold blood to hot, then welcome Sephera Giron to the short list of dark mistresses of terror truly worthy of that title." - Stanley Wiater, Dark Dreamers"A truly bizarre piece of fiction." F. Paul Wilson"Giron at no time lets up on the horror quotient." - Fangoria"Sephera Giron's tale of witch-craft and vampirism blends erotic romance and chills in equal measure, and is clearly a pre-emptive literary strike by a talented storyteller." - Michael Rowe"This Mistress of the Dark blends madness with black macabre to ride a syncopated edge. Sephera Giron rocks!" Nancy Kilpatrick, Power of the Blood Trilogy"Giron deserves a place beside the top mistresses of the dark." - Hellnotes"Giron is a remarkable new voice in the horror genre."
