John Sackville is dying—and something dark is dying to be born.
In a shadow-stained prison cell, he writes his final testament: a confession soaked in grief, obsession, and the monstrous hunger gnawing at what’s left of his humanity. As he mourns the death of his secret lover, John unravels the story that led him here—a descent into ancient cults, creeping rituals, and a horror older than time itself.
From the stone circles of Scotland to the haunted peaks of Tibet, The Black Hunger is a queer gothic horror debut drenched in atmosphere and dread.
With echoes of The Secret History and The Terror, Nicholas Pullen delivers a story that crawls under your skin and whispers truths you never wanted to know—inch by devastating inch.
