A collection of terrifying tales set in the very near future... or perhaps it's already here?
From The Introduction by Steve Dillon:
"We live in a time when isolation seems to be the only way to protect ourselves from another infectious plague. Loneliness has become the new norm, it seems, yet we still find ways to pull together in an ever-increasingly world of virtuality.
This anthology was born of a desire to face up the beast that is covid-19, aka coronavirus, aka the 2020 plague; to look in its slavering maw and say ‘fuck you because life goes on, and when you’re gone from this place, the world and its people will be stronger.’
The other driver, for myself and all the wonderful contributors who’ve shared these stories with us, is to see if we can make a difference where we can. In this case to raise funds for the Save the Children Coronavirus Response.
I’m delighted to see such a great response from the people who know such horrors best; the horror writing community, the experts and the dabblers in dark fiction; the people who care to make a difference, who are inspired by the thought that horror fiction can make a difference to those living real-world horror stories. In fact, the response was so great that a second volume is already well under way. So, to all the authors and other contributors, I tip my hat to you all, and wish you a happy and healthy future."
It's an infected apocalypse and we're all (alone) in it together!
