Soft Apocalypses
A Horror Short Story Collection by Lucy A. Snyder
Subgenres:
- Short Story Collection,
- Science Fiction Horror,
- Steampunk Horror
This book is for you if you're into...
- Genre-blending stories from steampunk to science fiction to horror
- Quiet apocalypses with thorny ethical dilemmas
- Award-winning short fiction that defies expectations
Soft Apocalypses received the 2014 Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a Fiction Collection.
Lucy A. Snyder proves once again that she is fearless in mapping every corner of the literary landscape. Not content to be confined to any single region, she guides readers through dark realms of fantasy into the churning industry of steampunk, from the dizzying heights of science fiction down to the most desolate depths of horror.
The strength of the tales that make up this quiet cataclysm—for example "Magdala Amygdala," winner of the 2013 Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in Short Fiction—do not compete. Instead they overlap to create a vista of ethical armageddons at once thorny and hopeful. Snyder's irresistible prose and stunning eye for detail bind together a collection that defies expectation but delivers deep satisfaction.
