Chapelwood: The Borden Dispatches

By Cherie Priest

Book Overview

Birmingham, Alabama, is infested with malevolence. Prejudice and hatred has consumed the souls of its populace. A murderer has been carving up citizens with a hatchet. And from the church known as Chapelwood, an unholy gospel is being spread by a sect that worships dark gods from beyond the heavens. The church's parishioners plan to sacrifice a young woman to summon beings never meant to share reality with humanity. An apocalypse will follow in their wake that will scorch the earth of all life. And only Lizzie Borden can stop it.

Customer Reviews

I love this duology.

I love this duology and this writing style - combining real action and conversation with occasional thoughts from other characters, letters, newspaper articles. The plot of this is coming from multiple sources. A cult is violently bringing about astronomical change - doom on all the world. But Lizzie Borden still has an axe. And she isn't alone.
