"This weird fiction will glue you to the page. … the starkness threats of the future transmute through the lens of potential, courage and invention. A richly rewarding, unique blend of writerly duet."—<B><I>Aurealis Magazine</I></B><BR /><BR /> "Thoughtful takes on futures wracked with environmental challenges … consistently original … the stories evoke recognizably human responses to adverse conditions. Even with the duo of authors, this collection achieves remarkable coherence.”—<I><B>Publishers Weekly</B></I><BR /><BR /> "A powerful artistic impact ... Warren's storytelling often leans towards the psychological and the hauntingly emotional, whereas Sparks’s narratives tend to be more expansive, exploring societal and environmental dynamics in speculative settings. This distinction in their narrative approach offers a diverse reading experience within the shared thematic framework."—<I><B>Science Fiction Short Story Reviews</B></I><BR /><BR /> "A highly recommended collection for fans of ecohorror, climate fiction, dystopian, science-fiction, cyberpunk and dark fantasy. An exciting new dark fiction collection focused on sociopolitical issues, climate destruction, questioning humanity and the future we create now for ourselves. A beautifully written and engaging series of stories that is as quick-paced as it is a thought-provoking read. Put this on your to-read list!"—<B>Leanbh Pearson, author of <I>The Ghost Warrior</I></B><BR /><BR /> "An interesting collection of speculative fiction tales from the world of weird. As with most collections of shorter stories this has it's gems nestled among the better than average line up."—<B><I>Monty's Book Reviews</I></B><BR /><BR /> "Presents a deliciously dark future, filled with invasive plastic, faux paradises, abandoned malls, spy networks tucked amongst citizen enclaves, and manipulative experimentation, all wrapped up in the kindness and cruelty humanity has to offer to itself. Swinging from tender to horrifying, there’s a story here for anyone whose reading tastes lean towards the dark, the dystopian, and the weird, with a healthy serving of contemplative speculation that will leave you thinking long after you leave the pages."<BR /> —<B>Maggie Slater, author of <I>The Showerlier</I> and other stories</B><BR /><BR /> "All of the stories give glimpses of strange, post-apocalyptic places where everything’s gone topsy-turvy, and throughout it all, the thought that this isn’t really that far from reality is it? Yet despite the horrors, the resiliency of the characters gives hope that maybe, just maybe they (we) will find a way through. I highly recommend this collection for its top-notch writing, well-told stories, and dark, disturbing themes. Perfect for fans of weird and dark speculative fiction."—<B><I>Tkentwrites</I></B><B><I>​</I></B>
