Jonah Caine, a lone survivor in a zombie-infested world, struggles to understand the apocalypse in which he lives. Unable to find a moral or sane reason for the horror that surrounds him, he is overwhelmed by violence and insignificance. After wandering for months, Jonah's lonely existence dramatically changes when he discovers a group of survivors. Living in a museum-turned-compound, they are led jointly by Jack, an ever-practical and efficient military man, and Milton, a mysterious, quizzical prophet who holds a strange power over the dead. Both leaders share Jonah's anguish over the brutality of their world, as well as his hope for its beauty. Together with others, they build a community that reestablishes an island of order and humanity surrounded by relentless ghouls. But this newfound peace is short-lived, as Jonah and his band of refugees clash with another group of survivors who remind them that the undead are not the only-nor the most grotesque-horrors they must face.

Dying to Live

Thom Brannan

WEREWOLVES Dr. Crispin has engineered the saviors of mankind: Pavlov's Dogs, a team of soldiers capable of transforming into fearsome beasts. But when Crispin and his team welcome a new talented neurotechnician to the island, Dr. Crispin quickly realizes his masterwork has fallen into the hands of a man he does not trust. ZOMBIES Back on the mainland, Ken Bishop and his best friend Jorge get caught in a traffic jam on their way home from work. There's a wreck up ahead. And something worse. The first sign of a major outbreak-and Ken and Jorge are stuck in the gridlock. Not only do they need to escape, but they also need to save as many people as possible on the way. ARMAGEDDON Now Dr. Crispin and his team must make a terrible decision. Should they send the Dogs out into the zombie apocalypse to rescue survivors? Or should they listen to the new neurotechnician, who would have them hoard their resources and post the Dogs as island guards?

Four novellas present different versions of the classic zombie invasion: a mob hitman in Aruba must hide from zombies, his fellow mobsters, and creatures in the water; a man awakens in a zombie-swarmed alley with no memory of his past; three art students are terrified by the legacy of what lives beneath a New England cemetary; and a CIA agent discovers that zombies are being controlled by someone with a new bio-weapon up for bid on the black market.

"We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." So said H.P. Lovecraft in the first chapter of his most famous story, "The Call of Cthulhu" (1926). This is also the perfect introduction to Steampunk Cthulhu, for within these stories mankind has indeed voyaged too far, and scientific innovations have opened terrifying vistas of reality, with insanity and worse as the only reward. The Steampunk genre has always incorporated elements of science fiction, fantasy, horror and alternative history, and certainly the Cthulhu Mythos has not been a stranger to Steampunk. But until now there has never been a Steampunk Cthulhu collection, so here are 18 tales unbound from the tethers of mere airships, goggles, clockwork, and tightly bound corsets; stories of horror, sci-fi, fantasy and alternative realities tainted with the Lovecraftian and the Cthulhu Mythos. Here you will discover Victorian Britain, the Wild West era United States, and many other varied locations filled with anachronistic and sometimes alien technology, airships, submersibles and Babbage engines. But the Victorian era here is not only one of innovation and exploration, but of destruction and dread.

Elements of the Apocalypse

Eric S. Brown

D. Richard Pearce

Aliens... Angels... Demons... Zombies... Ancient Evils... Modern Horrors... These are MADMEN'S DREAMS. Eric S. Brown and D. Richard Pearce present a deranged collection of 34 horror and sci-fi tales so startling they could only come from the nightmares of the insane. Brown and Pearce take the reader into the darkest corners of the madhouse in these tales that run the gamut from classic horror and science fiction to intense action and psychological terror. "Madmen's Dreams" is a peak at the inner workings of an unstable mind.
