About this ebook
The Agony of After
by
Scott Hale
is an anthology of four interconnected horror novellas that take place after The Blood of Before and before The Bones of the Earth series.
A social worker arrives at a low-income housing complex for a routine in-take, only to discover it will be anything but, as he is given a firsthand ac-count of his client's own form of therapy for the world itself.
A group of twenty-somethings who take pride in their ability to label and judge others discover their LGBTQIA community has become the target of a series of hate crimes by a culprit who appears motivated by the writings of their peerless leader.
The community of Bedlam is shaken as four children from four separate families are abducted on the same day, at the same time, in the same neigh-borhood, without any witnesses or apparent motives.
A wanderer with a memory longer than his lifespan drifts across the Trau-ma-wracked wasteland of Earth, finding companionship and purpose where he can, until he is taken in against his will by a creature with nefarious plans for the distant future.
Horrific, satirical, and necessarily uncomfortable, The Agony of After is a real-ization of what followed the events of The Blood of Before, and a pivotal piece of the secret history of The Bones of the Earth series.
