Pith helmets and protein bars
at the ready - it’s going to be
a hell of a trip...

 

In the grand tradition of our previous ‘Short Sharp Shock’ anthologies, AMOK! and Stomping Grounds, we are proud to present sixteen new stories to delight and horrify you from a mixture of critically-acclaimed writers and new-bloods.

This will be a voyage of discovery for all concerned as successive teams of hapless explorers fall foul of the elements and monstrosities lurking in  shadowy caves, hidden temples, icy tombs and even alien planets.

From steamy jungles and back waters to unexplored islands and mysterious woodlands, researchers investigate alien artifacts and mysterious creatures, while others probe interdimensional portals, oblivious to the dangers.

Some are motivated by the romance of discovery, others by the heady intoxication of greed, but all are doomed when their  forays into the unknown world become terrifying tales of ILL-CONSIDERED EXPEDITIONS!
