Long-listed, NPR Best Book of the Year, 2024

This program features multicast narration.

From Gretchen Felker-Martin, the acclaimed author of Manhunt, comes a vicious new novel about a group of teens who must stay true to themselves while in a conversion camp from hell.

"A soaring, boundless ode to queer survival. It's flat-out mesmerizing."—Paul Tremblay, author of The Pallbearers Club

Something evil is buried deep in the desert. It wants your body. It wears your skin.

In the summer of 1995, seven queer kids abandoned by their parents at a remote conversion camp came face to face with it. They survived—but at Camp Resolution, everybody leaves a different person.

Sixteen years later, only the scarred and broken survivors of that terrible summer can put an end to the horror before it's too late.

The fate of the world depends on it.

“Tense and frighteningly visceral, Cuckoo is a masterwork of body horror thrumming with high octane viciousness.”—Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Cuckoo is, like Felker-Martin's previous novel Manhunt, absolutely masterful. It is gory and horrifying and brash. It is a parable slicked with blood and viscera. It is a condemnation of the ways the world tries to force queer people to become shadows of themselves by abandoning who they are. This book will leave you gasping and yearning, and it will stay on your mind long after you turn the last page."—ROXANE GAY, New York Times bestselling author of The Bad Feminist

"Cuckoo is a breathtaking novel of body horror; a heartbreaking, angry, terrifying, unflinching indictment of Christian America's cruelty; and it's a soaring, boundless ode to queer survival. It's flat-out mesmerizing."—PAUL TREMBLAY, author of The Pallbearers Club

"Cuckoo is a cry of grief and rage and, at its heart, a tribute to the queers who cup their hands around the guttering flame of hope and refuse to let it die. Brutal, relentless, terrifying, startlingly beautiful—I dare you to put this novel down.”—CARMEN MARIA MACHADO, author of Her Body and Other Parties

Easily one of the best books I’ve read so far this year. A combination of John Carpenter’s The Thing and Jordan Peele’s US, Gretchen-Felker Martin’s Cuckoo takes you by the throat and doesn’t let go!

Great Storylines and even better characters

Whelp, I will be honest. I purchased this book by accident. Stupidly, I thought it was something else. However, I still enjoyed it. It has a great story and fantastic characters.

It's gory, wrenching tale of queer survival. It's hard to praise it without spoiling the twists, but the protagonists and monsters feel grounded and fully realized. The horror is both scary in an edge-of-your-seat way and in a deeper way. it's a horror story for an age when so many of the horrors are right there in the open and we all face the question of what we're willing to sacrifice to fight them. Also, she writes great fat queer sex scenes.

A Kind of Changeling Story

I enjoyed Manhunt enough to make this an instant buy when it released. It hits the horror, heart, and humor (no really! It's dry, but it's there!) just as well or better than that title did. The cast give it their all as these poor kids drag themselves through a gory, paranoid, claustrophobic nightmare of a story. Felker-Martin shows she can shift genre from near-future dystopia to near-past fantasy without missing a beat.

Excellent, scary and ambitious

I couldn't stop listening to it!!! The cast and story 10/10 would recommend a hundred times over!

Totally wicked, great voice work repulsive gore and characters that are incredibly well realized. I loved it, great horror, great fiction, great book.

It ruled

I loved the spin of using brainwashing camps as a hideout for an evil entity preying on humanity. All the characters were broken and hopeful and hopeless in all the right ways. A well-told story with lots of creepiness and terror.

Creepy and inventive

Another great story from a great author! I will read everything by Gretchen that I can get my hands on! The way she takes on the real issues facing the queer community within the context of incredibly well written horror and gut wrenchingly real portrayals of queer interpersonal relationships is *chefs kiss* just magnificent. This book is not for the faint of heart but neither is being queer in the world right now. As a queer adult raised by very conservative Christian parents, I have found both Gretchen’s books that I’ve had the pleasure to read to be safe places for me to process some of the deep and ugly trauma that even therapists haven’t been able to touch. 10/10 please keep them coming! I can’t wait to read what she writes next 🖤

captivating

I really wanted to like this book, but it just wasn’t for me I guess. I didn’t like the flow of the storyline. Almost DNF. I think I like the audiobooks with just one main narrator.

I don’t know..
