Praise for We Kept Her in the Cellar: “This masterful and horrific interpretation of Cinderella follows the well-known plot in entirely unexpected ways, a welcome addition to the retold-fairy-tale genre.” —Booklist “An impressively original, compulsively fascinating, page turner of a read from beginning to end.” —Midwest Book Review “I'll be looking forward to whatever W. R. Gorman writes next.” —The Nameless Zine “A captivating and horrific twist on the traditional Cinderella story.” —Coffee Addicted Writer “Delightfully dark and enchanting, this is a Cinderella tale like no other. Gorman lures us into a magical world where nothing is as it seems. Wild, wicked and fay, this is a fairy tale retelling of horror and bewitchment at its best. Gorman is an author to watch!” —Leanbh Pearson, author of Three Curses and Other Dark Tales
