Monteleone (Editor) 21 all new, all original stories of magic realism and speculation horror which pushes the limits of what is being done in darkly imaginative fiction...the expedition to open the gates to new literary territory, and will help scorch a path through the jagged landscape of the imagination unbound…. — Borderlands is a horror anthology series n... more »ot concerned with traditional elements of horror fiction. Borderlands is about breaking the mold and pushing the genre and its finest writers to the edge. Hailed as the anthology series of the 90's, Borderlands will remind you that horror can indeed be horrific. Prepare to cross over the cutting edge into a hitherto unexplored region -- where imagination soars on leather wings, feeding its most loathsome desires...driven by its deepest, most hideous needs. Presenting horrific journeys through unexplored realms far beyond the boundaries of terror! The Borderlands anthologies are the horror connoisseur's delight, containing none of the typical mass-media mishmash genre elements of shampling zombies and red-eyed vampires interspersed with showbiz tabloid magazines writing.
