Born in darkness, they arise. Seductive angels of murder, madness, and horrors beyond imagining. COVEN Bathed in moonlight, they feed their darkest hungers in a festival of perversion and death, demented orgies that serve a cruel, unspeakable will... COVEN They are irresistible sirens in black, corrupting the living and raising the dead. Now the silent town of Exham will surrender to their loving embrace, their haunting beauty, and their ravenous need for human flesh. Surrender--and die... COVEN Beauty is only skin deep. More like a revved-up gross-out ‘70s B-movie, COVEN revels in its ultimate editorial no-no it’s science-fiction dropped into a contemporary horror plot, something that horror editors seem to never buy. Maybe this one sold...because it works. Originally entitled THE WOMEN IN BLACK, this "turgid," original take on the There’s Something Fucked-Up At The College plot highlights Lee’s gross-out skills early on and demonstrates that pulp horror writers really can create fresh, well-developed, easy-to-realize characters. Cameos of Lee’s then-favorite beers--during his beer-snob days--appear in abundance, and Lovecraftian symbols abound (it’s fun just picking them out), but wait till you meets the gals in this book. This is the only existing novel that Lee wants to sequelize.
Coven Edward Lee Books
My first thought on reading this was "You could buy this book in a grocery store?"Indeed, it is hard to imagine that a book this extreme would be published in mass market today. The outrageous plans for "interspecies breeding" by the villains is so disgusting and ridiculous that it caused me to laugh out loud. While Edward Lee doesn't reach the gross-out heights that he would later in his career this is the first of his books that feels like what most would classify as an Edward Lee novel. No one else could describe these horrific events with such a sense of playfulness and pure fun. This is a good starting point for new readers and one that fans of latter-day Lee should check out if they have missed it.

Coven Edward Lee Books Reviews
You really have something going wrong at the college. The women in black are running amok, and they seem to be having fun doing horrible things to people. You also have your redneckish types that seem to live in Edward Lee's mind, berring it up and doing things that seem to get them all killed. Combine that with the many Lovecraftian things that sleep in his mind and you have yourself a grand book.
A lot of Edward Lee is great, some good, and a few are of the lower variety. When Lee was writing his newer stuff, it was all nice to read. Creekers was the best of the best, but this book hung in there and did its thing. It felt like one of the older horror movies that had come to life, decided it wanted to get really gory behind-the-scenes, and showed people what Lee was all about. Sometimes I feel like a few things just hit the paper wet, and those little pieces of fun are what makes Lee great.
He goes and the mind wallows.
In this bok I also liked the way the characters popped. In some books that was lost, but here it seemed like they lived in this world. They also didn't take sides when it came to living and dying, giving you a look into the mind of some of the smart and some of the dumb. And the dumb - you know they get really bad out there when the clock stikes "Dying time."
If you want a great book that is getting a little harder to grab, then take this one and run with it. I loved it when I read it and it reminded me why I liked the books. Some call it guilt pleasure reading, but this is simply fun to have around. It might not make you create the next PhDuhhh, but they make a whole branch of (yawnnn) books for that. This is good the way it is, and goes well with a nice heavy lunch.
5-5 stars earned.
Just did not enjoy this book. I finished it to see what he was going to do with these characters. The characters are very one dimensional, and I just do not buy how Lee plays things out. There is no story here, just some provocative scene sketches. This particular tale seems to have a lot of RAPE obsession thrown in, yet written so that the victims LIKE it. Yeah. Great.
Lots of gory goo- but not scary, not creepy. Just gross.
Did someone say Lee is the heir to Stephen King's throne? I think not.
Different for Edward Lee black comedy great character development excellent book in the extreme horror genre huge Edward Lee fan
Edward Lee's The Coven is a pretty good read. If your into horror sex and gore then this book is for you.
I have read other books by this author and really liked them. This one however I could not even finish. Charactors were unlikable, and the whole story was very dry and boring only made it to 52% and I almost always finish a book. I was just to bored to finish it.
I dont have many comments. I liked this book, the start of it was engaging in that I quickly became interested in what was going on, I was interested in some of the characters and not so much on others. Once you know what is going on, the book starts to go down hill a little but all in all I liked it. Kinda gross throughout but not revoltingly so.
I wish I had looked into this before I bought it, but I saw the title and Edward Lee's name and automatically clicked the "buy now" button. I mistakenly thought it would be to do with witches or at the very least vampires since some authors don't use the term "nest." However that was not the case. The story started out well enough, but turned silly fairly quickly. It is more of a gory comedy/sci fi than the horror I was expecting. Coven is actually a story about Aliens who plan to repopulate the earth. Had I known I would have passed
