5/20/2023 0 Comments Starblood by Carmilla Voiez![]() ![]() ![]() I have to admit to a certain level of bias with this my first Goodreads recommendation. Starblood was also nominated for the Commonwealth Book Prize (2012). The Starblood Trilogy was voted best horror release of 2014 by The Three Bookateers.Ĭarmilla Voiez won HFA's Horror Author of the Year 2013 for this book. ![]() Prizes - Starblood was nominated for the Commonwealth Book Prize in 2013 Carmilla won the Horror Author of the Year (2013) (Horror Fans Asylum) and FearVenture Author of the Year 2014 As Jef Withonef of Houston Press once said - "You do not read her books, you survive them." Her books are both extraordinarily personal and universally challenging. Fascinated by the Goth aesthetic and enchanted by threnodies of eighties Goth and post-punk music she evolved into the creature of darkness we find today. Her earliest influences as a teenage reader were Graham Masterton, Brian Lumley and Clive Barker mixed with the romance of Hammer Horror and the visceral violence of the first wave of video nasties. ​Carmilla grew up on a varied diet of horror. When not writing, she gets paid to hang out in a stately home and entertain tourists. She is passionate about horror, the alt scene, intersectional feminism, art, nature and animals. A life long Goth, living with two kids, two cats and a poet by the sea. ![]() Carmilla Voiez is a proudly bisexual and mildly autistic introvert who finds writing much easier than verbal communication. ![]()
