Motel Styx
Motel Styx | Jonathan Butcher, Michelle Von Eschen
2 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
Tucked away in the Chihuahuan Desert lies a motel unlike any other... Fueled by online trends, a shift in the American zeitgeist has led to the instatement of the Lazarus Act, legalizing the 'recreational use' of human corpses. Ellis Mercer, recently bereaved, embarks on a secret mission to America's first 'necrotel' to recover his wife's remains, before her corpse and his memory of her are desecrated by the motel's twisted membership. As he uncovers the murky inner workings of Motel Styx, evading its suspicious staff and encountering a wild array of death-obsessed guests, he will be forced to face an unsettling truth: there is more than one way to define love. Motel Styx is a disturbingly witty tale about lust, loss, and the last taboo.

In a future America, necrophilia becomes legal. There are necrotels, hotels that provide necrophiliac experiences. We follow Ellis, a husband going undercover as a customer, to look for the body of his dead wife at Motel Styx. Nothing is as it seems. It was really good. There are some themes and lessons here. Is it as depraved and disgusting as you think it is? Yes. If you‘ve read Tender is the Flesh, you can do this. A, just cremate me, Pick!

Reggie @sarahbarnes @Suet624 @LeahBergen @Rissreadswithcats @Bookzombie it‘s so funny, I listen to this podcast, Currently Reading. It‘s hosted by these two really mild manner women and they had this show where they featured recommendations from listeners that were recorded. In the middle of all the romance, the Patchett, the Kingsolvers, the fantasy, this one lady out of nowhere comes on and talks about this book. Talk about shocked,so I took the chance 2mo

Books of Horror Indie Author Brawl! Look, I didn‘t finish it. Not because it‘s bad—actually, it‘s good. REALLY good. The premise of the story, necrophilia with consent being legalized, is scarily realistic. But it was the necrophilia itself I couldn‘t handle. Plus, I had some feelings about the narrator, and looking up the ending I was right. And I‘m not in a place to read that right now. But for everyone into extreme horror with…

Lauranahe great writing and a creepy dystopian-ish future, please read it! It‘s a very well-written book. 10/10 stars! 5mo
Reggie I listen to this podcast Currently Reading and they did this thing where they asked for listener recommendations. I was shocked to hear this woman shout this out. And then I went and bought the kindle. lol 5mo
Lauranahe In the fb horror group that does the Indie Author Brawl, everyone who‘s read it has praised it. And what I read was really good. But it‘s definitely not for everyone! I think in a different head space I could finish it, just not right now. 5mo
Lauranahe Also, the more I think about it, the wilder it is that someone would recommend the book on a mainstream podcast. 🤣 5mo
