The Queen establishes Nick Cutter as the living master of maximalist horror writing in the English language. But that’s not all! It’s also gripping, relentlessly suspenseful, and surprisingly tender. A big, stomach-flipping joy ride of a book.”
—Mason Coile, acclaimed author of William

10/10

"I had so much fun reading this! Definitely hit the spot and scratched a particular reading itch. If you've read Nick Cutter before, you know what to expect and what youre getting yourself in for, and with that, you wont be disappointed."

Jax M. (4/5)

Dark, creative, and creepy!

"The Queen is an intricate, ominous tale that transports you into the life of two main characters, Margaret Carpenter, a teenage girl shaken by the sudden disappearance of her best friend Charity, and Rudyard Crate, a tech billionaire who, after suffering a traumatic childhood experience which resulted in the horrific death of his sister, embarks on a gene manipulation experiment involving insects known as “Project Athena. ” The writing is nuanced and sharp. The characters are scarred, determined, and impulsive. And the plot is an eerie tale full of twists, turns, friendship, mayhem, obsession, power, grandiose delusions, questionable motivations, trauma, tragedy, death and violence. Overall, The Queen is an intense, visceral, disturbing page-turner by Cutter that left me with an even bigger case of entomophobia and is a terrifying reminder that advances in science can be good or bad depending on how someone chooses to use them."
