Horror/Spec

Afterworld is a haunting and visionary speculative anthology that traverses the fragile boundary between science fiction and horror. In this collection, global writers imagine life beyond apocalypse-on new worlds, in broken cities, and deep within the ruins of memory.

From the barren landscapes of Mars to the depths of the human psyche, each piece captures the desolate beauty of extinction and the defiant persistence of imagination. The anthology examines themes of technological decay, alien rebirth, survival, isolation, and the enduring question of what it means to be human when the world we know no longer exists.

Contributors draw inspiration from cosmic horror, climate fiction, dystopian myth, and the poetics of the unknown. The result is a lyrical exploration of the aftermath-an elegy and a revelation, both terrifying and profoundly humane.

Afterworld is essential reading for lovers of speculative poetry, gothic surrealism, and literary horror-an anthology that lingers like starlight over the bones of civilisation.
