About This Book

"A perfect mix of horror and fantasy."—The New York Times

"The Butcher of the Forest" shows exactly why Mohamed is one of fantasy's rising stars."—The Washington Post

"The Grimm brothers can't hold a candle to Premee Mohamed and her fever dream of a fantasy novella."—Polygon


A world-weary woman races against the clock to survive a deadly forest in this dark, otherworldly fairytale from Nebula and World Fantasy Award-winning author Premee Mohamed.

At the northern edge of a land ruled by a merciless foreign tyrant lies a wild, forbidden forest ruled by powerful magic.

Veris Thorn—the only one to ever enter the forest and survive—is forced to go back inside to retrieve the tyrant's missing children. Inside await traps and trickery, ancient monsters, and hauntings of the past.

One day is all Veris is afforded. One misstep will cost everything.
