In 1738, English preacher, Isaac Watts wrote 'The world to come', a
Christian tract about departed souls, death, and the glory or
terror of the resurrection. Almost 300 years later the world to
come still fascinates readers. It's not only climate change, it's
the climate of everything: from technological 'advances' that
threaten to create an immortal humanity; to an endless 'war on
terror, ' which means that, though we may never know war, nor will
we ever truly know peace; to a thousand visions of post-Apocalyptic
life in the media. The world to come is everywhere; it is with us
now... In this anthology, twenty-one writers respond to the world
to come - the one just around the corner, the hereafter and the
everywhen. - See more at: http:

A truly international collection of 21 stories, traversing genres,
about the future to come In selecting these stories from a global
call-out, the editors looked for pieces that contemplated "the
world to come" in ways that, regardless of genre, surprised,
delighted, enthralled, or horrified. Science fiction mixes with
fantasy, with realism in all its sub-genres, with speculative
fiction, with the almost unclassifiable. Readers will be shocked
and stirred by this collection that brings together truly disparate
voices across nationality, gender, class, and race.
