Cover reveal and preorder links for THE WRITHING, VERDANT END

The Big Reveal

Remember last newsletter when I announced The Writhing, Verdant End, a split weird eco-horror collection by Corey Farrenkopf, Tiffany Morris, and me (Eric Raglin)? If not, here’s a little sneak peak of the book:

An ailing community traverses a chasm of nightmare animal amalgams to reach the lush paradise beyond. Lovers in a plant apocalypse fight for survival and search for meaning in the face of immeasurable loss. Reunited friends resurrect an extinct bird through grisly sacrifices that bring about unexpected consequences. These tales——four short stories, a novelette, and a novella——explore the awe, terror, and strangeness of the natural world in dire times.

And now it’s time to reveal the fabulously frightening cover illustration by Lou-Ellen Allwood with typography by Alan Lastufka:

A skeletal human gazes through red-tinted binoculars. Tinted in red, undead-looking animals thrash in violence and terror--horses, snakes, wolves, deer, and birds.

I couldn’t be more excited to reveal this stunning cover and announce that…
