T.C. Bridges
Winter closed early over the great desert of the Northwest, and the first dense snow lay on the banks and covered dark trees with a white mantle. Ice formed under the river banks, and its huge layers crumbled under the sound of a choking stern wheel and rattled like broken glass on a track. In the snowy forest thickets, neither human dwellings nor living creatures were visible. The still air was bitter from the frost, and a dull red sun fell behind the distant hills.

Apokalipsa to tylko moment. Prawdziwy horror zaczyna się później. W tych historiach świat już upadł czasem gwałtownie, czasem niemal niezauważalnie. Po wszystkim zostają ruiny i zgliszcza: miast, systemów, relacji. Wirus , wojna, eksperymenty, żywioły i zaraza to tylko różne drogi do tego samego końca. " The Ruins " to antologia opowieści rozgrywających się w świecie po katastrofie pośród zniszczonych przestrzeni i porzuconych zasad. To historie, w których największym zagrożeniem nie jest sam kataklizm, lecz ludzie bez zasad. To książka o konsekwencjach. O decyzjach podejmowanych w ruinach dawnego porządku. Bo gdy nie ma już nic do stracenia, maski spadają. Autorzy: Alexandra Claire, Anna Tuziak, Dawid Dyczko, Anna Kucharska, Dominika Saletnik, Krzysztof D. Dąbrowski, Katarzyna Muszyńska, Kamila Malec, Małgorzata Brodzik, Patrycja Żurek, Paula Uzarek, Szymon Jabłoński, Piotr Kudłak, Paulina Grabara, Ewa Zwonarz, Natalia Hermansa.

Robert E. Howard
Robert Ervin Howard (January 22, 1906 June 11, 1936) was an American author who wrote pulp fiction in a diverse range of genres. In a meteoric career that spanned a mere twelve years, Robert E. Howard single-handedly invented the sword and sorcery genre. From his fertile imagination sprang some of fictions most enduring heroes. Yet while Conan is indisputably Howards greatest creation, it was in his earlier sequence of tales featuring Kull, a fearless warrior with the brooding intellect of a philosopher, that Howard began to develop the distinctive themes, and the richly evocative blend of history and mythology. Kull is an exile from fabled Atlantis who wins the crown of Valusia, only to find it as much a burden as a prize. This collection gathers together three stories plus one poem featuring Kull The Shadow Kingdom, The Mirrors Of Tuzun Thune, Kings of the Night and The King And The Oak.
Robert E. Howard
The roar of battle had died away; the shout of victory mingled with the cries of the dying. Like gay-hued leaves after an autumn storm, the fallen littered the plain; the sinking sun shimmered on burnished helmets, gilt-worked mail, silver breastplates, broken swords and the heavy regal folds of silken standards, overthrown in pools of curdling crimson. In silent heaps lay war- horses and their steel-clad riders, flowing manes and blowing plumes stained alike in the red tide.
