~TESTIMONIALS FOR CHARLOTTE EMMA GLEDSON~
"Some authors tell stories :we can believe in and follow as if they were real. When I read Charlotte Emma Gledson I am taken to a realistic world, with characters that I somehow know, even the weirder ones. Early on there is something sinister brewing, just below the surface of her prose. Then she goes for the jugular with a dramatic and horrible twist that takes your breath away in an instant. Her Stories are darkly surreal and brilliantly contrived.
In The Lonely Tree passion and dark revenge take on a whole new meaning, and will leave you with images you could not scrape from your mind’s eye. In Retribution you feel the plight of a ghost, who suffered an abusive life, now free in the spirit world, haunting the halls of the one who mistreated her. The story takes you to a shocking twist that weaves yet again, and keeps you guessing right to the end. In The Hand That Feeds she knits a twisted dark tale that requires a certain taste, for blood."
– MATTHEW PIERCE, author of Reflected Evil and The Dark Curse Of Whispers - USA
"Charlotte Emma Gledson's stories are darkly poetic, edgy, and unsettling. Tales like Retribution, Shadow Man, and The Lonely Tree showcase just how diverse a writer she is. Remember her name because this new voice in horror is sure to be around for years to come."
- ALAN DRAVEN, editor of Sinister Landscapes and author of Bitternest - CANADA
“Charlotte Emma Gledson presents us relatable, solid, horrifying, modern dark fiction that plucks at every nerve and fear we have. Her macabre tapestries are unique, relevant, holistic and poignant. Indeed a writer whose work is a much needed breath of fresh air in the dark fiction genre."
–BEN EADS, dark fiction writer and The Dark Fiction Spotlight host - USA
"Charlotte Emma Gledson has a hauntingly beautiful and compelling way of weaving her short stories together. From her very first enticing sentence she garners the reader’s complete attention as she lures you into her deliciously twisted world. A world where all fans of dark fiction need to visit.”
– P. S.GIFFORD, author of Curious Accounts of the Imaginary Friend/Dr. Offig's Lessons From the Dark Side - USA
"Charlotte Emma Gledson aims to terrify. She invites you into the heart of the monster, and shows you the suffering within the evil. This book will unleash a world of darkness...."
– L.B. GODDARD , Author and Editor of The Monsters Next Door Magazine. - USA
'The book that I am reading right now,is Charlotte Gledson's 'The Lonely Tree'. A treasure of dark tales that will keep me far away from England and the horrors that lie there. She has the ability to wrap you with the beauty of her words, and then darken the entire room around you with the meaning behind them. I would suggest this for any fans of horror and dark gothic tales'.
- JEFF EZELL - Author and Editor - USA
"Charlotte Emma Gledson has a taste for the macabre that is a rare quality among female writers...she embraces the descriptions of blood and internal organs with relish...a definite one to watch."
– GARRY CHARLES, Award winning UK horror author and screenwriter and writer for Gorezone Magazine. - UK
"Charlotte Emma Gledson writes with the heart of a poet and the guts of a sniper. Her work is clever, keeping the reader entranced until that last moment when she delivers a twisted kick to the cherries. Definitely a new force in the horror world."
- CASSANDRA LEE Author of Darknes Springs. - CANADA/UK
"In the tradition of Weird Tales, Charlotte Emma Gledson's The Lonely Tree and Other Twisted Tales of Torment revisits the roots of horror. From the ageless cries of hell -bent love to depraved acts of vengeance, this collection cultivates the quintessence of horror and infuses a powerful blow of terror. Gledson's dark prose lyrically flows, as a symphonious sonata of dread - such is the spellbinding command her tales have over the reader. Charlotte Emma Gledson's debut collection solidifies her as a significant new voice in horror to be reckoned with. Surely, we'll be hearing from her for a long time to come."
- ANDREW WOLTER - author of Nightfall - USA
Charlotte Gledson's collection of short stories left me disturbed and chilled to the bone. Excellent bedtime reading if you want to engulf yourself in horror of all kinds. Reading Gledson is like Wordsworth meeting Laymon. Great stuff.
- L.V. RUTTER - London - UK
“Suspenseful... she kept me on my toes every inch of the way. the queen of detail. Stepehen King move out of the way here comes Charlotte Gledson.”
- JONATHON S KAMPH - USA

- K.V.L. SPENCER - Liverpool - UK

- MRS J WHELAN - SCOTLAND
"This book is a revelation. Who thought horror could be written so...lyrically? Charlotte Emma Gledson is a master with the pen; her writing style is so beautiful, so poetic that you nearly forget she's writing tales of death and destruction. Her way with words, both artistically and linguistically is nothing short of breathtaking. This book is a gem, and I can't recommend it highly enough. You'll find yourself grinning and murmuring "Oh my, YES!" My personal favorite is To Have And To Hold.
Buy this book and enjoy the ride...in your own personal hearse."
