Launching School's Out Forever with Scott K. Andrews on 7th September
Cannibalistic gangs, teenagers with a taste for crucifixion, and religious fanatics - being a teenager can be hell sometimes.
Oh, and almost everyone you knew is dead.
School's Out Forever is the brand new omnibus of tales from The Afterblight Chronicles, Abaddon's post-apocalyptic series, and author Scott K. Andrews will be at launching this tasty tome at Forbidden Planet in London on Friday 7th September! Scott will be there to sign copies, and probably swap tales of survival, from 6pm to 7pm.
Be there or be the dinner lady no-one liked...

“Abaddon are onto a real winner with this series.”
– Total Sci-Fi Online
“Meticulous historical detail, with a pulse-pounding pulp plot.”
– Red Rook Review on Black Hand Gang
It’s
been four months since the Pennine Fusiliers vanished from the Somme and found
themselves stranded on an alien world.
The
Tommies have been surviving on this bizarre planet populated by lethal foliage
and hostile human-like insects while desperately trying to find a way back to
Blighty.
In The Alleyman, while Lieutenant Everson
tries to discover the true intentions of their alien prisoner, Lance Corporal
Atkins and his Black Hand Gang are on the trail of Jeffries, the diabolist
responsible for their predicament. And above it all, Lieutenant Tulliver of the
Royal Flying Corps soars free of the confines of alien gravity, where the true
scale of the planet’s mystery is revealed. To uncover the truth, however, he
must join forces with an unexpected ally.
A
blazing mixture of genre-shattering SF, meticulously researched history, and
powerful storytelling, The Alleyman is
the third in this enthralling and exhilarating series.

With most of the world’s population now wiped out, the
surviving pupils of St Mark’s School for Boys and Girls must defend themselves
against cannibalistic gangs, religious fanatics, a bullying prefect with a
taste for crucifixion, and even the remnants of the US Army.
Mixing Lord of the Flies with The Hunger Games, School’s Out
Forever is the latest omnibus from The Afterblight Chronicles. Scott K.
Andrews’ St Mark’s Trilogy books are a visceral, terrifying trio of stories
that brings a new twist to the post-apocalyptic dystopia – all viewed through
the eyes of children.
With the first in the series already optioned for a movie
with Multistory Films, this new omnibus collects the complete trilogy and is
packed with strong characters, action, and a truly killer concept.
“Youthful idealism
conflicts with jaded experience, and the characters are frequently forced to
balance ruthless efficiency with utopian optimism… A lot of provocative
discussion sneaks in under the cover of machine gun fire.”
– Pornokitsch on
Kitchsie Award Finalist Children’s
Crusade
