On December 21st, there's a new anthology out which includes "Curiosity," my Cthulhu space story you may have heard me mention, alongside stories from several other fine authors -- including Monte Cook Games's Bruce Cordell.
If you have any love in your heart at all, you will pre-order your copy right now!
Super science. Madness. Transhumanism.
This is the dawn of posthumanity. Some things can’t be unlearned.
Gleaming
labs whir with the hum of servers as scientists unravel the secrets of
the universe. But as we peel away mysteries, the universe glances back
at us. Even now, terrors rise from the Mariana Trench and drift down
from the stars. Scientists are disappearing—or worse. Experiments take
on minds of their own. Some fight back against the unknown, some give
in, some are destroyed, and still others are becoming… more.
The
human and inhuman are harder and harder to distinguish. Mankind is
changing, whether it wants to or not, with brand new ways of
thinking. What havoc is wreaked by those humans trying to harness and
control their discoveries? As big science progresses and the very
fundamentals of this universe are understood, what stories are being
hushed up?
Of course, the Old Ones laugh at our laws, scientific and otherwise.
These are transhumanist near-future science fiction tales of the Cthulhu Mythos. These
are tales of more than merely cosmic dread. They exist in our world of
the next couple years. This is the era of big science and—what is that?
We’ll be right back.
