Event Details

From aliens to zombies, prehistoric monsters to monstrously conceived tomorrows, this collection comprises Paul McComas’ fifty best speculative-fiction, horror, and dark-comic works — most never before published. You’ll encounter “Nessie” and nuclear apocalypse, voodoo and vampires, androids and ax murderers, death curses and dystopias, soul-craving corporations and “Collies in Space” . . . plus ice worlds and werewolves and eels, oh my!

Ingenious, heartfelt, and always entertaining, these stories often function as pithy political parables and scathing socio-cultural critique as well. Unforgettable is the thinking person’s, the feeling person’s, and the snickering person’s “genre book,” all in one—not to mention an eclectic, audacious, ever-surprising celebration of the human imagination.
