$6.99

Darkly witty and full of gothic imagination, Not a Hope in Hel continues the Winterbourne saga, where Death himself struggles to manage a nursing home that doubles as a waiting room for the dead. With rebellious Necrosites, restless souls, and chaos lurking at every turn, S.A. Baker blends horror, humor, and fantasy into a tale of mortality like no other.

Description

Where death clocks in, and the afterlife is always behind schedule.

Not a Hope in Hel brings readers back to Winterbourne, the eerie converted asylum where the dying are shepherded to the next world under the reluctant watch of Davis Mareth—Death himself. But running the “office of the void” isn’t easy when rebellious underlings, called Necrosites, defy their place in the order, residents refuse to let go of life, and supernatural uprisings threaten to unravel the delicate balance between the living and the dead.

With mordant humor and chilling detail, S.A. Baker reveals a world where bureaucracy collides with the macabre. From grisly deaths and spectral rebellions to the politics of managing creatures who’d rather hunt than obey, Not a Hope in Hel explores what happens when inevitability is anything but orderly.

Highlights include:

  • A fresh twist on the Grim Reaper, reimagined as an overworked caretaker balancing compassion and cosmic duty.
  • The Necrosites: grotesque, violent, and rebelliously human in their hunger for freedom.
  • Macabre humor woven through gothic horror, blending the terrifying with the absurd.
  • Themes of mortality, rebellion, and the fragile structures that hold chaos at bay.

Smart, unsettling, and grimly funny, Not a Hope in Hel is a fantasy-horror that proves death is never as simple—or as quiet—as it seems.
