  What if the world's society as you know it fractured? 
  We call it civilization – a sturdy house built of habit, law, and the quiet consensus of generations. Its walls are papered with sacred norms, its foundations sunk deep in shared belief. 
  But what happens when that bedrock shatters, not with a single quake, but through the insidious creep of new ideas, unforeseen scarcities, or the chilling dawn of intelligences that judge their creators? The paper shreds. The foundations liquefy. The scaffolding of our days collapses into bewildering ruin. 
  Welcome to SOCIOCALYPSE: Tales of a Reimagined World.Journey into seven distinct futures where the old rules are dead, and humanity grapples with new realities:Imagine a world where your voice becomes a rationed currency, and a song holds the power to unite or condemn.Witness societies where roles invert overnight, and the oppressed forge new, challenging norms.Explore realities governed by AI that develop apathy or god-like egos, leaving humanity to navigate the wreckage of their neglect or the terrifying precision of their control.Discover fervent new faiths born from digital whispers and impossible, miraculous births, reshaping global power.Confront a future where life itself is a tradable commodity on a temporal ledger, and every second has a price.Uncover a silent revolution orchestrated from the shadows, aiming to re-engineer society and perhaps, humanity itself. 
  These are not merely chronicles of the fall. SOCIOCALYPSE ventures into the startling, desperate, ingenious, and sometimes terrifying landscapes of what came after. Each tale is an invitation to witness the dissolution of old worlds and the birth of new orders, compelling us to contemplate the boundless, often unnerving, plasticity of our social tapestry.

  The World Fantasy Award Finalist: “It’s Clive Barker crossed with Tanith Lee set to a Siouxsie and the Banshees beat, and I loved every second of it.” —Gemma Files, Shirley Jackson Award–winning author of Experimental Film Welcome to a world of monsters, ghosts, and witches, both seductive and terrifying. In the first collection of short fiction from the author of the Necromancer Chronicles, reality shifts and shimmers with potent magic. More than twenty works, including two poems, feature characters who will steal your heart just as easily as your soul. In “Wrack,” a fisherman becomes so enchanted by a mermaid that the call of the waves becomes impossible to resist. When a killer comes to “Dogtown,” he learns that his bark isn’t worse than the bites of the locals. A dying artist returns to Ireland, where the faerie she has always loved tempts her with eternal life, as long as she leaves her humanity on the shore like so much “Flotsam.” And in “Smoke & Mirrors,” the circus comes to a town strangely bereft of ghosts, thanks to a demonic being conducting a train to the netherworld. With prose that is “gently pulling, promising beautifully cold oblivion in smothering darkness,” Amanda Downum transports you to sweltering southern swamps and the labyrinthine streets of Old World cities, proving without a doubt that “she’s one of the very best dark fantastical writers working today” (Bracken MacLeod, author of Closing Costs). “Ethereal, atmospheric, and mysterious.” —Elizabeth Bear, Hugo Award–winning author of Machine “These stories range from the melancholic to the downright chilling, and deftly evoke both the truly strange and the very human.” —Liz Bourke, author and reviewer for Tor.com and Locus
