Poppy Z. Brite Ordre des livres

Eine Anthologie mit 34 brandneuen Kurzgeschichten basierend auf Stephen Kings Meisterwerk, dem Nr. 1 New-York-Times-Bestseller THE STAND ! Seit seiner Erstveröffentlichung im Jahr 1978 gilt THE STAND als Stephen Kings bahnbrechendes Meisterwerk der apokalyptischen Fiktion. Mit Millionen verkaufter Exemplare und zwei TV-Adaptionen hat dieser Kultroman Generationen von Schriftstellern beeinflusst. Obwohl es andere bemerkenswerte Werke gibt, die den Zerfall der menschlichen Gesellschaft erforschen, war keines so einflussreich wie dieses – mit seiner beeindruckenden Charaktervielfalt und der düsteren, aber letztlich hoffnungsvollen Vision vom Ende und dem Neubeginn unserer Zivilisation. Nun hat Stephen King zum ersten Mal offiziell eine Rückkehr in die erschütternde Welt von DAS LETZTE GEFECHT autorisiert - in Form dieser Anthologie, präsentiert von den preisgekrönten Autoren und Herausgebern Christopher Golden und Brian Keene. DAS ENDE DER WELT WIE WIR SIE KENNEN vereint einige der größten und visionärsten Schriftsteller unserer Zeit und bietet unvergessliche, brandneue Erzählungen, die während und nach (und manche vielleicht lange nach) den Ereignissen von DAS LETZTE GEFECHT spielen – vierunddreißig brillante, furchterregende und zutiefst menschliche Geschichten, die bei Lesern weltweit zum unverzichtbaren Begleiter des klassischen Bestseller-Romans avancieren werden. Mit einer Einleitung von Stephen King, einem Vorwort von Christopher Golden und einem Nachwort von Brian Keene. Zu den Autoren gehören: Wayne Brady und Maurice Broaddus, Poppy Z. Brite, Somer Canon, C. Robert Cargill, Nat Cassidy, V. Castro, Richard Chizmar, S. A. Cosby, Tananarive Due und Steven Barnes, Meg Gardiner, Gabino Iglesias, Jonathan Janz, Alma Katsu, Caroline Kepnes, Michael Koryta, Sarah Langan, Joe R.

A sexy new repackaging of the extremely popular anthology of vampire erotica, edited by acclaimed author Poppy Z. Brite. The classic horror tale is about fear. But in the last few years a new literature of the macabre has arisen, one that goes deeper than horror, beyond fear, to explore our darkest, most intimate hungers. The ones even lovers are forbidden to share. Acclaimed dark fantasy author Poppy Z. Brite has brought together this genre's most powerful and seductive authors in an original collection of vampiric erotica, a shameless celebration of unspeakable intimacies. It is not for everyone. But neither is the night.

An anthology of end-of-the-millennium fiction, capturing the atmosphere of the times from millennium madness to apocalypse culture. Writers such as Jeff Noon, Douglas Coupland, Nicholas Blincoe, Kathy Acker and Poppy Z. Brite have contributed exclusive stories.
