A tangle of tales featuring perilous plants, scary sprouts, and frightening flowersStrangling vines and meathungry flora fill this unruly garden of strange stories, selected for their significance as the seeds of the killer plant trope in fiction, film, and video games.Before the Demogorgon of Stranger Things and the appearance of Marios iconic foe the Piranha Plant, writers of the 19th and early 20th centuries were exploring the lethal potential of vegetable life, inspired by new carnivorous species discovered on expeditions into the deep jungles of the world and breakthroughs in the grafting and genetics disciplines of botany.Suddenly, the exotic orchid could become a curiously alluring, yet unsettlingly bloodthirsty menace; the beautifully sprawling wisteria of the stately home could become anything but civilized, and the experimentation of botanists weening new shoots on their own blood could become fuel for a new genre of horticultural nightmare.Step within to marvel at Charlotte Perkins Gilmans giant wistaria and H. G. Wells hungry orchid; hear the calls of the ethereal women of the wood, and the frightful drone of the moaning lily; and do tread carefully around E. Nesbits wandering creepersEvery strain of vegetable threat (and one deadly fungus) can be found within this new collection, representing the very best tales from the undergrowth of Gothic fiction.Also featuring illustrations by Lauren Forrester.

The atmosphere in 'Tales of the Botanical' is spot on, but I was hoping for more character development. Some tales captured me immediately, while others didn't feel complete. Still, it was a fun read for a quiet night!

Mixed Feelings
I was excited for 'Tales of the Botanical', but some stories felt a bit too disjointed. The ideas are fantastic, just not always executed well. Still, I appreciated the creativity behind it!

Not What I Expected
I was really looking forward to 'Tales of the Botanical', but it arrived with a bent cover and a few pages were wrinkled. The stories themselves are intriguing, but I was disappointed with the condition. Wish it had been packaged better.

Interesting Concept but Lacks Depth
While I enjoyed some of the tales in 'Tales of the Botanical', I found a few of them a bit underdeveloped. The writing style is unique, but some stories just didn't engage me as much as I hoped. It's worth a read, but be prepared for mixed quality.

Dark and Captivating Read
I picked up 'Tales of the Botanical' from Evil Roots and I couldn't put it down! The stories are delightfully eerie, blending gothic elements with nature in ways I've never seen. A great choice for fans of weird fiction!
