If you missed the Kickstarter, don’t fret, you can order a PDF or a physical copy at our website.

Still unsure? Don’t take it from us, here’s what reviewers have to say:

"These are unique and deeply personal reflections on what it might mean to be a monster by a collection of exceptionally talented creators"  - Newsarama

"This eclectic mix of creatures run the gauntlet of emotions, resulting in a surprisingly touching gathering of stories." - Bleeding Cool 

“ Wayward Sisters follows in a line of contemporary attempts at reclaiming the image of the monstrous feminine as either a celebration or empowerment of femininity and womanhood.” - In Full Bleed

“I wish this book was around when I was a monstrous kid, but I’m so grateful it’s here now!” - Rogues Portal

We’re also on Goodreads, so once you’ve read the book, don’t forget to let us know what you think!

"From mermaids hunted for their meat to a ghastly beauty pageant, Wayward Sisters celebrates lady and non-binary monsters who are indelicate, impolite, and irrepressible." Follow them at @wsanthology for updates! Committee member @coss_to got a sneak peek of the anthology and says the comics are absolutely amazing (and she also designed their cover logo). In order to win, you have to RSVP to our Facebook event (link in bio) and be present at the time of the draw. #cslnto #comicshopladiesnight #toronto #monsters #ladymonsters #comicanthology #waywardsisters

“WAYWARD SISTERS is one of the most impressive showcases of artistic talent I have ever seen in an anthology. WAYWARD SISTERS showcases a stylistic range that I can hardly put into words.“
