29 BRAND NEW SCI-FI HORROR STORIES\nThe future is now, and it's not what we were promised. The optimistic science fiction of old was wrong. Progress is not linear, technology creates as many problems as it solves, and the concept of a better tomorrow has become an abstraction that is in no way guaranteed. When looking at the future now, we no longer ask what is possible, we wonder how we'll cope. Contained within this anthology are 29 never-before-published works by supremely talented authors. Brace yourself for the all too real horrors of what could very well be our terribly monstrous futures.\n﻿﻿﻿﻿STORIES BY\nM. H. Ayinde, P. A. Cornell, Yelena Crane, Rodrigo Culagovski, Koji A.
