The Sweet Scent of Liver

The Sweet Scent of Liver really lives up to the promises of its premises (and of its awesome cover), it's bleak, dark, violent, often gross, and occasionally poignantly sweet.

I loved the religious aspect, it added to the overall Event Horizon vibe I got from the novel (the story doesn't have too much in common with the movie I'm really talking vibe here). If you like a story that packs a lot of action in a small package without feeling rushed at all that's exactly what Wilde delivers here.

For my sex repulsed peeps; there is one graphic "sharded" procreation scene which is really repulsive and intended as such (I assume) but otherwise there really isn't really any spice.

I received an eARC of this book from BooksGoSocial through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
