Neil Gaiman’s new book Trigger Warning: Short Fictions and Disturbances will feature a reprinting of his Doctor Who short story Nothing O’Clock alongside Black Dog, a new short story from the world of his popular American Gods novel and a range of many other previously published pieces of short fiction-stories and verse from Gaiman’s canon.
“Trigger Warning is a rich cornucopia of horror and ghosts stories, science fiction and fairy tales, fabulism and poetry that explores the realm of experience and emotion. In Adventure Story-a thematic companion to The Ocean at the End of the Lane-Gaiman ponders death and the way people take their stories with them when they die. His social media experience A Calendar of Tales are short takes inspired by replies to fan tweets about the months of the year-stories of pirates and the March winds, an igloo made of books, and a Mother’s Day card that portends disturbances in the universe. Gaiman offers his own ingenious spin on Sherlock Holmes in his award-nominated mystery tale The Case of Death and Honey. And Click-Clack the Rattlebag explains the creaks and clatter we hear when we’re all alone in the darkness.”
Trigger Warning: Short Fictions and Disturbances is available to preorder now from Amazon and Nothing O’Clock is also still both available separately and as part of 12 Doctors 12 Stories Box Set.
