Krampus is coming...



I recently was able to read a physical ARC of Rebecca F Kenney's new book "A Heart so Cold and Wicked".

Set in the same universe as her Nutcracker and Christmas Carol reimaginings, this is a Krampus reimagining, where Krampus is part of the Wild Hunt, ruthless fae ghosts who are being punished for crimes they committed while alive.

In this tale, Krampus is tasked with punishing people who hurt children. To his confusion, he is sent to the rescue of an actual adult woman, who has been held captive for years by a delusional, sadistic killer.

Will this young woman with no name be his salvation or his destruction? Will he be able to bring healing to her broken soul or will he damn her to the same hell he endures?

A Heart so Cold and Wicked has cemented itself as my absolute favorite Rebecca F Kenney book of all time and is a perfect winter holiday read for all who adore dark, spicy fairytale reimaginings.
