Publisher Description
Cassandra Khaw's Nothing But Blackened Teeth is a gorgeously creepy haunted house tale, steeped in Japanese folklore and full of devastating twists.
A Heian-era mansion stands abandoned, its foundations resting on the bones of a bride and its walls packed with the remains of the girls sacrificed to keep her company.
It’s the perfect venue for a group of thrill-seeking friends, brought back together to celebrate a wedding.
A night of food, drinks, and games quickly spirals into a nightmare as secrets get dragged out and relationships are tested.
But the house has secrets too. Lurking in the shadows is the ghost bride with a black smile and a hungry heart.
And she gets lonely down there in the dirt.
Effortlessly turning the classic haunted house story on its head, Nothing but Blackened Teeth is a sharp and devastating exploration of grief, the parasitic nature of relationships, and the consequences of our actions.
A Macmillan Audio production from Tor Nightfire
Customer Reviews
Decent, not great
The descriptions were on point, but the characters were unlikable. They acted like they just learned how to swear. The general vibe was creepy, but it wasn’t scary.
Voice actor studied 0 japanese
Pretentious verbiage and butchered Japanese pronunciation by a voice actor who took zero time to learn anything about the language coupled with writer who learned surface level aspects of japanese art. This book covers 4 unlikeable dimwits who you will find little to connection with and a slurry of every japanese urban legend written like a 14 year old’s creepy pasta crammed into boring stroll through what a gaijin imagines Xavier’s haunted japan is like.
Meh
Idk. I didn’t care about any of the characters
