A psychedelic post-apocalyptic vision of a world on the brink of civil war...

In iDEATH, the sun shines a different colour every day. It is a happy place, made of watermelon, and its inhabitants travel the length of their dreams. But outside its sugared limits a gang of dissenters live among the trash heaps of the Forgotten Works, stewing in violence, hate – and the promise of revenge.

BRIEF ENCOUNTERS: classic novellas and captivating stories, to be read in a single sitting or savoured over days
