Tales from the Ruins
(2023)A collection of stories by Karen Bayly, Adam Breckenridge, Claire Davon, Claire Fitzpatrick, Kurt Newton, Stuart Olver, Michael Picco, L P Ring, Malcolm Timperley, Mark Towse, Cameron Trost, David Turnbull, Joseph S Walker and Louise Zedda-Sampson
Fourteen terrifying tales of a ruined tomorrow!
Was it nuclear war, an uncontrollable pandemic, or forces beyond our reckoning? Will we even know what happened once supply lines have been cut, radio silence has kicked in, and our world has come to a grinding halt? Who will have what it takes to carry on? Who will want to?
This cataclysmic anthology casts the reader into a post-apocalyptic world where every step taken and every decision made can mean the difference between life and death. These are epic stories of a world in ruins, but they are also intimate and moving accounts. Our masterful contributors take you by the hand and show you what will be. Don't let go, whatever you do...hold on tight! You will share the characters' struggles as you navigate wastelands or hole up as best you can in the crumbling remains of supermarkets and abandoned houses. You will go hungry. Your feet will grow numb. You will fear, and you might have to fight to the death. But in the end, you will remember it is only a book, and that you can close it, knowing you are safe and sound, because we are not in a post-apocalyptic world. Not here. Not now. Not today. But what will tomorrow bring?
