Speculative fiction author Wendy Nikel invites you to scour the crumbled streets of these twelve standalone short stories, previously published in Daily Science Fiction, Nature Magazine, Flame Tree Press, and other sci-fi magazines and anthologies.
Outrun the gathering storm clouds and plague, fend off enemies both living and undead, and band together with other survivors from worlds torn apart by disaster. From scavenging supplies to preserving humanity’s treasures to the rebuilding that comes when the dust finally settles, though these stories sift through the ruins of society as we know it, they’ll leave you with glimmers of hope.
