Why read it?
1 author picked House of Bone and Rain as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is another brilliant, devastating work from Gabino Iglesias. As with his previous novel, The Devil Takes You Home, Iglesias masterfully combines horror with situations that are all too real, to chilling results.
