Product Description

A work of erotic horror fiction filled with "sacrilege, blasphemy, and crime" -written in a style that is part H. P. Lovecraft, part Marquis de Sade, and part Octave Mirbeau-The Cannibal Within is literally "wet with sin, slippery with blood, and slimy with fornication."

Editorial Reviews

From the Author
A second selection from the work:

Had not the great Yukio Mishima killed himself with a dagger? Thrusting and wet--his hand one with the weapon--Mishima called suicide the "ultimate masturbation."

In my night dreams, my suicide was always maternal and affectionate. Nestled like a plump baby in my mother's arms, I parted my lips to suckle a pink nipple rubbed with black poison.

There was a slight acrid taste--a moment of discomfort--and then peace. Smiling sweetly, I rested in bliss.

In my daydreams, my fantasized method of suicide was different. I imagined a radiant death--pure and clean--I died like an incinerated moth that flies into the fire.

How I longed for a dignified end--I could almost smell the funeral pyre of scented wood--but it was not to be.

Although I wanted to die--without fear and without anger--I could not. It was not possible.

My hate--incandescent and pure--kept me alive. And my desire for vengeance--a passion that burns hotter than lust--gave me purpose.

Vengeance gave me reason to continue.

The Most Bizarre and Heinous Story I have ever read.5
The Cannibal Within is the account of one woman's journey through the mad and macabre of what appear to be "transhuman" cannibals. The story itself is to the fullest details of this bizarre tale that even the most deranged human being would be trembling with fear.

The story is elegantly a true story; however, the details of this story are unbelievable. The details are so extreme, that I won't give them to you; you will just have to read it.

This story is a recommended piece whether you are a fan of horror, the occult, cannibalism, or even madness.

It is beautifully written and it's a must read, but be forewarned. The details in the book, may come back to haunt you, forever.

You have to love those fruit flies.

Cannibal Within5
I read this book in a period of about an hour and a half; I quite simply could not stop reading it. It is well-written in first person, which creates an incredible emotional and psychological impact on the reader. The gruesome detail is revolting, yet fascinating. I also recommend "The Odin Brotherhood" by the same author.

A filling main course of a story with a side order of disgust, wonderful.5
Some of the inspiration may be attributed to Lovecraft but I doubt he would have written anything like this.
A darkly, conspiratorial fantasy that strangely ends in a potted, social and cultural history of the 'monsters'(Transhumans).
Brilliant!
Best devoured in one sitting.
