Just finished another cracking dystopian thriller. Clones! Fife explodes! Stats! The Field! A gang of 90s nostalgic bampots! A man-baby technocratic despot! And a terrifying new mode of transport. Satirical, emotional and gripping.
Calling all fans of psychological thrillers!
This killer bundle is only £19.99 on our online shop this week. If you like unreliable narrators and sinister reads, we reckon you'll love these novels.

"They form a circle with the traveller in the middle. He revolves slowly, facing them all: their hands clapping, their eyes watching him expectantly. What else can he do but dance?"
@danshand's darkly comic story, from Gutter #23, is now up on our blog!
guttermag.co.uk/blog/twist-a…
In 'Twist and Shout' there's a fine line between dancing and madness, and @danshand jigs straight over that line and off into the sunset.
Can't tell you more without spoiling this gem of a story. You'll just have to pick up a copy and see for yourself.
