Stories of the end of civilized life have always fascinated us, from the mythological world endings, Armageddon to Ragnarok, to the flood stories of across the Ancient world.

Stories of the end of civilized life have always fascinated us, from the mythological world endings, Armageddon to Ragnarok, to the flood stories of across the Ancient world. They make us wonder what we would do if all around us came to an end: no transport, no fuel, no communications: a retreat into the desperation, the onslaught of disease, how would we survive? This is the source of zombie literature and provides the inspiration for this fabulous mix of horror and adventure, of classic and brand new writing in the successful series of Gothic Fantasy titles from Flame Tree.
