OF BEASTS by M. Jane Worma (to be released 2/10/26 by Clash Books / 77 pages)
Dante is a 17 (or 18) year old who is having a relationship with Jude, the pastor of a Texas church. They begin having dreams, supposedly from God, that reveal Dante is the Antichrist and must begin the apocalypse, and Jude must stop him.
OF BEASTS is part queer romance, part religious horror that’s heavier on descriptions of sex and very light on why any of this is happening. Without spoiling things, a major miracle occurs and doesn’t seem to phase anyone (including the reader), and with the low key (possibly) symbolic ending, this quick read offers an interesting premise but doesn’t deliver on anything it proposes.
