Chainsaw Hooker
Chainsaw Hooker: An Extreme Revenge Novella | Judith Sonnet
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
RJ is having a tough time. She's married to an abusive pig, she's constantly violated by weirdo clients, and her life as a sex-worker seems to be going nowhere. All of this changes the night a cult of junkies abduct her. On that night, RJ is shown a terrible vision of what lies beyond her own sad existence. Heaven and Hell are still at war, and the Devil wants RJ on his side! Now, after being gifted a demonic chainsaw, RJ is more than just another hooker. She's a weapon. She's bloody, gory, mean-spirited vengeance. She's on a rampage, settling scores and sending evildoers straight to Hell! "A wild, gruesome journey to the grave and beyond, filled with zombies, demons, and more! Sonnet is a master of extreme splattercore, a brutal, brilliant writer with a voice we'll be hearing for a long time." -Brian Bowyer (author of ROAD HARVEST) "From Judith Sonnet comes Chainsaw Hooker, which sees a rundown protagonist taking vengeance on the people that really ... shit on her. Sonnet's prose is wonderfully grim and grimy, with a sticky filth that sits on every scene. And it's fucking glorious. The story blasts by with barely a moment to let you catch your breath and is all the better for it. With storytelling channelling Edward Lee, this is a book that smacks of Giallo horror and eighties grime, with no-holds-barred eviscerations, and unsurprisingly lots and lots of chewy chainsaw action. Chainsaw Hooker is a visceral, bloody, gore-soaked good time." -Ash Ericmore (author of BRUTE) "Chainsaw Hooker is an unrelenting orgy of delicious depravity that's as delightfully disgusting as it is imaginative. Troma's got nothing on Judith Sonnet." - Eve Harms (author of TRANSMUTED) "With Chainsaw Hooker, splatter queen Judith Sonnet eviscerates her way into the canon of modern horror. An over-the-top novel with hyper-violent comic book sensibilities, it's a treat for horror fans who like their fiction irreverent and slick with mean-street grime." - Lucas Mangum (author of SAINT SADIST) "I loved every warped, wet, and wrathful syllable of Chainsaw Hooker! This was so much goddamn fun!!!" - Paula D. Ashe (author of We Are Here to Hurt Each Other) "Judith Sonnet has managed to write the equivalent of those old, cheesy b-movie flicks at the drive-in and the horror genre is better for it. She is a force to be reckoned with and CHAINSAW HOOKER is her love letter to horror." - Christy Aldridge (author of These Ghosts Bleed) WARNING: This is an extreme novel. It features graphic violence, gore, torture, and sexual abuse.

This was surprisingly well written and easy to follow.

There's a bit of everything thrown in here too, it was just a fun read.

RJ, the main character is likable. There's a few very dislikeable characters but they get their comeuppance and it's delightful.

I'll be on the lookout for more from this author.

Twainy I suddenly feel better having to admit that I got an ARC of the second book in the Pale Court duology 😁😉 just a little better. I should go review it ….. 2y
