Splintered Dreams: A Guide to the Apocalypse - Softcover

We all dream of a bright future, for dreams and hope are equal in the realm of utopia. Unfortunately, dreams always lie at the horizon; the more we stride forward it, the more it retreats. No matter how far we go, we can never reach it. Still, we can’t stop dreaming, because deep inside we know the meaning of dreams; they are meant for us to advance. Thus, we keep walking on the path to utopia, dreaming of a perfect society where racial prejudice, social injustice, famine, and diseases are a thing of the past. But what happens when civilization invades and rules every aspect of our life? What happens when the greater good justifies the sacrifice of what makes us humans? What happens when those dreams are shattered? They become splinters. Splinters of different possibilities, different worlds. Utopia becomes a dystopia. Salvation becomes apocalypse. This anthology explores some of those splintered dreams with the help of some of today’s most visionary writers. Jonathan Maberry, Timothy Frasier, Johnny Andrews, Joseph and Marisha Cautilli, Druscilla Morgan, Norbert Gora, Pete Aldin, and Jim Avelli will be your guides into the nightmarish, yet fascinating splinters of a dystopian apocalypse.
