“All the elegance and all the venom, like one of E. Nesbit’s supernatural stories served with a side of arsenic.”—Grady Hendrix, New York Times bestselling author of The Final Girls Support Group and How to Sell a Haunted House
“Camilla Bruce writes dark fantasy like no one else out there. A gothic masterpiece, At the Bottom of the Garden is a propulsive novel with gorgeous prose and incredible characters you won’t soon forget. You’ll never look at the wicked stepmothers of fairy tales quite the same way again. Put this book at the top of your TBR pile immediately; you won’t regret it.”—Gwendolyn Kiste, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Reluctant Immortals and The Haunting of Velkwood
“Camilla Bruce tills the macabre for all of its Edward Gorey glory, cultivating one gorgeously morbid gothic novel that’s just as gleeful as it is gashlycrumb. At the bottom of this particular garden you will find a wicked sense of humor that harkens back to the best of Roald Dahl’s Tales of the Unexpected, with all its vicious thorns intact.”—Clay McLeod Chapman, author of What Kind of Mother and Ghost Eaters
“Bruce’s unique cast of characters is both charming and terrifying. A young synesthetic musician, an even younger sensitive, a murderous aunt, and a houseful of furious ghosts—it’s all here! A delightful read.”—Louisa Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches
