Es la primera vez que leo a Cristina y menudo gustazo. La historia es muy original y el mensaje que transmite muy bueno. Está muy bien documentado y, para lo corto que es, tiene mucha información muy bien dada y muy amena.

Collection of work, kind of a mixed bag, a bit too surreal for my tastes. YMMV. Of them, "The Shepherd" was my favorite. Very atmospheric to me.

A fantastically dark, visceral, and unsettling collection of stories, weaving between scifi and horror, haunted by monsters that bite and devour. Most of the Jurado's monsters lurk beneath the surface of the everyday world, or beneath the skin (sometimes beneath our own skin), waiting for us to be alone. There is blood and guts,
This was my first time reading Jurado's work, and she has a strong, powerful voice that commands your attention right from the start. An excellent read for anyone who like their speculative fiction on the dark, weird, raw side.

Polvazo cósmico de imprevisibles consecuencias y ecos lovecraftianos o de los tebeos de terror de mi padre que no soy capaz de identificar del todo, pero muy bien integrados; como fanfic con político puede molar, incluso demasiado...todos vais a reconocerle, sin duda. Quizá un poco más oscuro que el real, pero quién sabe.

"Vanth" es un relato corto que sabe capturar diferentes niveles de terror psicológico en lo que se anticipa como la muerte del narrador. Jurado ha sabido darle un buen ritmo a la historia que va haciéndote pasar página cada vez más rápido hasta la última página. Es imposible no quedar cautivada por Vanth y su vida.
