With cover art by Corinne Halbert (Hate Baby Comix) and Foreword by Brandon Scott (Author of Vodou and Sleight, Devil Dog Press) EDITORIAL REVIEW: "With Under Her Black Wings, Kandisha Press has put together a collection of stories that touch upon a wide variety of subjects and give glimpses of horror from all over the world. The collection serves as a wonderful introduction to a lot of authors that I had not been acquainted with before, and also contains a few tales from some familiar faces. Among the familiar faces, The Sisters of Slaughter present Desert Kisses, a tale of revenge that reminds us that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Somer Canon delivers one of the most fun stories we come across with The Riddled Path. It's simultaneously hilarious and horrifying...There were so many new to me authors that caught my attention....If you are looking to adorn your shelves with some accomplished ladies of horror fiction, Under Her Black Wings is an appropriately worthy gateway." - Brennan LaFaro, DeadHead Reviews (abridged)
