We're very pleased to announce our first anthology of short fiction, Pandemonium: Stories of the Apocalypse.
The collection features stories set at the end of the world, as imagined by some of the biggest names and hottest newcomers in science fiction.
Pandemonium collects over a dozen original stories inspired by the art of John Martin, and will be released this October to coincide with the Tate Gallery's new exhibition of his work. Martin (1789 - 1854) was a Romantic painter with a taste for sweeping Apocalyptic scenes. Although he never received much positive critical attention, his huge and wildly imaginative paintings were popular with the masses. Since his death, Martin's reputation has gone through periods of complete insignificence and others of great renown. In short, he's our type of guy.
Pandemonium will be edited by Pornokitsch's Anne C. Perry and Jared Shurin, with a foreword by Tom Hunter, director of the Arthur C. Clarke Award. Pandemonium will be available to purchase as an ebook through Amazon or the project website. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Arthur C. Clarke Award, the UK's most prestigious prize for science fiction literature.
