Mothers are the hand the rock the cradle and the true rulers of the world. In this anthology of 33 stories and poems, we explore the powerful, dangerous, and transcendent nature of mothers. Through the most compelling voices in science fiction, dark fantasy, and horror today, we stretch the concept of motherhood to its limits and show a side of Mother that you've never seen before. Featuring award-winning authors and the most captivating new voices in speculative fiction, this is 300 pages of compelling, weird, and awe-inspiring tales that will have you rethinking everything you know about that most secretive of all women: Mother.
