Eine Anthologie mit 34 brandneuen Kurzgeschichten basierend auf Stephen Kings Meisterwerk, dem Nr. 1 New-York-Times-Bestseller THE STAND ! Seit seiner Erstveröffentlichung im Jahr 1978 gilt THE STAND als Stephen Kings bahnbrechendes Meisterwerk der apokalyptischen Fiktion. Mit Millionen verkaufter Exemplare und zwei TV-Adaptionen hat dieser Kultroman Generationen von Schriftstellern beeinflusst. Obwohl es andere bemerkenswerte Werke gibt, die den Zerfall der menschlichen Gesellschaft erforschen, war keines so einflussreich wie dieses – mit seiner beeindruckenden Charaktervielfalt und der düsteren, aber letztlich hoffnungsvollen Vision vom Ende und dem Neubeginn unserer Zivilisation. Nun hat Stephen King zum ersten Mal offiziell eine Rückkehr in die erschütternde Welt von DAS LETZTE GEFECHT autorisiert - in Form dieser Anthologie, präsentiert von den preisgekrönten Autoren und Herausgebern Christopher Golden und Brian Keene. DAS ENDE DER WELT WIE WIR SIE KENNEN vereint einige der größten und visionärsten Schriftsteller unserer Zeit und bietet unvergessliche, brandneue Erzählungen, die während und nach (und manche vielleicht lange nach) den Ereignissen von DAS LETZTE GEFECHT spielen – vierunddreißig brillante, furchterregende und zutiefst menschliche Geschichten, die bei Lesern weltweit zum unverzichtbaren Begleiter des klassischen Bestseller-Romans avancieren werden.

"Far upstate, in New York's ancient forests, a drowned village lays beneath the dark, still waters of the Chilewaukee reservoir. Early in the 20th century, the town was destroyed for the greater good: bringing water to the millions living downstate. Or at least that's what the politicians from Manhattan insisted at the time. The local families, settled there since America's founding, were forced from their land, but they didn't move far, and some didn't move at all... Now, a century later, the repercussions of human arrogance are finally making themselves known. An inspector assigned to oversee the dam, dangerously neglected for decades, witnesses something inexplicable. It turns out that more than the village was left behind in the waters of the Chill when it was abandoned. The townspeople didn't evacuate without a fight. A dark prophecy remained, too, and the time has come for it to be fulfilled. Those who remember must ask themselves: who will be next? For sacrifices must be made. And as the dark waters begin to inexorably rise, the demand for a fresh sacrifice emerges from the deep."--
