In her debut collection, New York Times best-selling author Holly Black
returns to the world of Tithe in two darkly exquisite new tales. Then
Black takes readers on a tour of a faerie market and introduces a girl
poisonous to the touch and another who challenges the devil to a
competitive eating match. These stories have been published in
anthologies such as 21 Proms, The Faery Reel, and The Restless Dead, and
have been reprinted in many "Best of" anthologies. The Poison Eaters is
Holly Black's much-anticipated first collection of stories, and her
ability to stare into the void--and to find humanity and humor
there--will speak to young adult and adult readers alike.
