creatures of want and ruin by molly tanzer

The cult is masquerading as a church promising salvation through temperance and a return to 'the good old days,' so it's hard for Ellie to take a stand against them, especially when her father joins, but Ellie loves Long Island, and she loves her family, and she'll do whatever it takes to ensure neither is torn apart. Distilled from foul mushrooms by a cult of diabolists, those who drink it see terrible things-like the destruction of Long Island in fire and flood. What Ellie doesn't know is that this booze is special. Creatures of Want and Ruin is horrific fantasy that races along at a breathless clip, with family drama as the revving engine. Her characters blaze with life, straining against the bonds of society. So desperate that when wealthy strangers ask her to procure libations for an extravagant party Ellie sells them everything she has, including some booze she acquired under unusual circumstances. This book is a delicate dream, mixing its own internal mythology with a brutal tale of prejudice and human frailty. Molly Tanzer writes human darkness, intimacy, and joy with equal skill and fervor. It's dangerous work under Prohibition-independent operators like her are despised by federal agents and mobsters alike-but Ellie's brother was accepted to college and Ellie's desperate to see him go. Tanzer is absolutely one to watch.' - Seanan McGuire, bestselling, award-winning author of In an Absent DreamĪmityville baywoman Ellie West fishes by day and bootlegs moonshine by night.
