The End of the World As We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King's The Stand (Hardcover)
$31.49 (was $35) | Releases August 19
The Stand is a timeless classic in the post-apocalyptic fantasy genre. The sprawling tale about a weaponized pandemic is told from many different perspectives and features a staggering number of subplots and secondary stories within the wider narrative.
King has alluded to The Stand and included characters from its world in his other works--he often does this in general--but there are certainly many more stories that could be told in the author's vividly realized apocalypse.
King apparently agrees, as he authorized the creation of the upcoming anthology The End of the World As We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King's The Stand. The 800-page short story collection features stories by dozens of contemporary horror and thriller authors, including S.A. Cosby, Richard Chizmar, Meg Gardiner, Josh Malerman, Catriona Ward, and Paul Tremblay. King wrote the introduction, and the anthology was edited by Christopher Golden and Brian Keene.
The End of the World As We Know It is scheduled for publication on August 19, so you have a few months to prepare by reading or re-reading King's original doorstopper.
