* The infamous short story "Literature/EricThePie", which was so graphic, it's been cited as the reason why ''Frighteners'' (the magazine it was published in) went under. The protagonist [[EatenAlive eats animals alive]], and keeps some victims in a torture chamber, slowly feeding off them over the course of several days. These victims include a Labrador whose legs are stripped of flesh, causing it to kick skeletal legs out in pain; a goat whose udder is ripped open (and compared to pudding); and [[spoiler: his human coworker]], who is disemboweled alive, forced to see her intestines fall into her lap, and feels Eric biting her liver and screaming ''inside'' her. There's also a graphic scene in which [[BestialityIsDepraved Eric rapes a calf]] while eating it.

* ''Literature/TheKillingStar'': As Johnathan Waville, one of the last two people on earth in the wake of an alien [[KineticWeaponsAreJustBetter R-bombing]], explores the ruins of what used to be Long Beach, New York, he's hit by a burst of hot air from the eye wall of a hurricane. Among the scents carried by the wind, he catches something that smells just like sweet Chinese pork, then immediately starts gagging and running back to his companion's submarine when he realizes what it is. It's the smell of hundreds of millions of carbonized human beings.

** Ayla's gruesome ScreamingBirth in the first book, combined with NightmareFuel, as Ayla [[spoiler: is only ''[[AbsurdlyYouthfulMother eleven]]'' at the time]] and her mother is justifiably afraid she will die. Ayla labors for hours in agony and she suffers vaginal tearing.
** The graphic description of Jondalar's injuries from the cave lion attack, including Ayla trying to keep his leg muscle from sliding out of place. Ayla herself [[NauseaDissonance isn't too bothered by the gore]] because she's an experienced healer, but even she's concerned about how she will treat the wound without risking Jondalar's leg. Jondalar is unconscious fortunately, but when he wakes up and gets a good look at his wounds, he feels nauseated as it hits him just how badly he was hurt.
** Mamut's description of how he broke his arm in his youth, with his re-telling making it clear just how serious it was. He accidentally fell down a cliff and snapped the bone in his arm, causing the broken bone to rip through the muscle and skin of his arm. Mamut says it was so mangled, it looked more like meat, ''and'' the wound ended up packed with dirt. He's extremely lucky to have encountered a skilled Clan medicine woman, or he would probably have died of a nasty infection.
