About this listen
Fear feeds wickedness. It hungers for the tremor of a voice, the drop of a tear. Wickedness dines on the echo of a racing heart, delights in the falsetto of a scream.
Eliza lives darkness’ dream. A maid in a great house, owned by indifferent aristocrats, run by their three cruel daughters.
Daily beatings, tricks, and cruelties by the Norlane sisters have left Eliza a mute shell, a vacant vessel besieged by fear. Yet, alone as she feels, as small and insignificant as her life seems, something is watching her.
Darkness lives in the forbidden forest beyond the neat and orderly civility of Norlane Hall. Wickedness hears Eliza’s silent tears, rises to the vibrations of her body that quivers in terror.
Wickedness awakens from its slumber and calls to her.

A delightfully dark gothic horror story!
This delightfully dark story instantly gave me dark-fairytale and gothic-horror vibes! It's a fitting combination for this book, and who doesn't love a story about bullies getting what they deserve? It's very easy to root for Eliza, who's being tormented by three evil sisters/spoiled brats.
This isn't my usual genre at all (love a dark fairytale, but gothic horror isn't my thing), but if you love the combination of these two or just gothic horror, you'll find a lot to love in these pages! The narration was beautifully done, too.

Gorgeously Gothic!
Chilling, menacing and gloriously gothic.
I read the book when it was released, but I adore an audio version. Excellently narrated by Bridget Thomas, you are instantly drawn into the story of young Eliza, a maid at Norlane Hall. The atmosphere is subtly layered as it envelops you, something only a great narrator can do. I usually listen whilst I'm doing other things, but with Child of Fear & Fire, I found myself stopping just to listen; it's so compelling.
