Reviews
"Daryl Gregory never fails to conjure a uniquely enthralling reading experience. With Revelator , he expertly mixes Tennessee bootlegging, the fervor of old time religion, and a new, hungry god in the mountain. Humane, heady, and thrilling, you'll believe in Revelator ." --Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts and Survivor Song " Revelator is a brilliant, dark examination of glorious horror and horrific glory. A monstrous, hypnotic tale of worship, devotion, and family secrets--I'll be thinking about this one for a long time." --Sarah Gailey, author of The Echo Wife "Gregory has spun a strange, haunting tale about faith, greed, and power--and the families we choose and the ones we cannot escape. You won't be able to put it down until you see what's at the bottom of the cavern." --Peng Shepherd, author of The Book of M, " Revelator is a brisk work of Southern Gothic horror and an intriguing, female-centric portrait of a family in conflict. It's funny, too . . . [Stella is] a complex character, a pleasure to follow for 300-plus pages . . . An intrafamilial battle ensues, fueling the book's eventful closing chapters and solving some mysteries surrounding the god." --Kevin Canfield, San Francisco Chronicle "In Revelator , Gregory has constructed a twisty, unnerving story that reveals its secrets [judiciously] . . . [Gregory] has a talent for writing outcasts, for conjuring empathy and sympathy for those left to toil in the margins. That talent is certainly on display in Revelator , where it's damn near impossible not to root for Stella but also for the family of choice she finds along the way . . . Revelator is a book of few heroes and many villains, but more than anything, it's a book for the people -- mostly women -- who get caught in the path of both." --Nicole Hill, Tor Nightfire "Daryl Gregory never fails to conjure a uniquely enthralling reading experience. With Revelator , he expertly mixes Tennessee bootlegging, the fervor of old time religion, and a new, hungry god in the mountain. Humane, heady, and thrilling, you'll believe in Revelator ." --Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts and Survivor Song "Gods and moonshine in the Great Depression, written with a tenderness and brutality only Daryl Gregory could have done--this is as good as novels get." --Stephen Graham Jones, author of The Only Good Indians " Revelator is a brilliant, dark examination of glorious horror and horrific glory. A monstrous, hypnotic tale of worship, devotion, and family secrets--I'll be thinking about this one for a long time." --Sarah Gailey, author of The Echo Wife "Gregory has spun a strange, haunting tale about faith, greed, and power--and the families we choose and the ones we cannot escape. You won't be able to put it down until you see what's at the bottom of the cavern." --Peng Shepherd, author of The Book of M "Daryl Gregory has gifted readers with a period horror novel that somehow feels completely modern, a fast-paced ghost train through a labyrinth of dark wonders. Revelator is the perfect autumn read for fans of the Southern Gothic and the Weird." --Shaun Hamill, author of A Cosmology of Monsters "Full of matter-of-fact descriptions of unthinkable horror, Revelator is both weird and wonderful . . . Revelator is full of surprises both fascinating and stomach-clenching . . . Revelator [serves] a slice of cold terror, paired with a view of humanity that is equal parts revelatory and humbling." -- BookPage , starred "An addictive tale of historical horror . . . Gregory ratches up the tension in stunning prose . . . a thrilling ride." --Publishers Weekly, "Daryl Gregory never fails to conjure a uniquely enthralling reading experience.

The mountains are home to dangerous secrets, and soon after she arrives, Stella wanders into a dark cavern where she encounters the family's personal god, an entity known as the Ghostdaddy. Years later, after a tragic incident that caused her to flee, Stella--now a professional bootlegger--returns for Motty's funeral, and to check on the mysterious ten-year-old girl named Sunny that Motty adopted.
