About This Book

Zothique is a collection of sixteen stories and one poem set on Earth's final continent under a dimming red sun. In this far-future setting, ancient sciences have been forgotten and replaced by a resurgence of sorcery, necromancy, and decadent kingdoms. The narratives explore the irony of human ambition and the inevitable decay of a world nearing its end.
