Carmen Rose narrates John Wiswell’s sapphic horror/romance with a sardonic wit that makes for an immersive listening experience. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss this delightfully weird fantasy audiobook and Rose’s skilled narration. Shesheshen is a shape-shifting monster who, weary of devouring an endless line of hunters seeking to eradicate her kind, constructs a makeshift human body and infiltrates the human world. What she doesn't expect is to fall for Homily, a kindly human woman who is haunted by a family curse. Rose brings each character's traits to life—from Shesheshen's deadpan humor to Homily's earnest compassion—and performs fight scenes with a liveliness that transports listeners into the battles.
