Fear is primal. Instinctive. Unavoidable. And right now, there is something you fear - and you can feel it. Creeping up behind you. Lurking in the darkness that lives under your bed, or in your closet. A nameless dread.
In Undercurrents: An Anthology of What Lies Beneath, 23 talented authors, including New York Times best sellers Kevin J. Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, and Jody Lynn Nye, have stood on the shores of their psyches and looked out over the ocean of possibility and wondered "What lies beneath?"
The sea creatures and sea monsters that answered their calls range from a giant kraken that rules the deepest ocean to the smallest puffer fish that creates intricate works of underwater art. Creatures of classic mythology - mermaids, sirens, and sea serpents - swim alongside more unusual beasts: underwater cats and singing whirlpools. These stories dive deep into the fears many of us face, including loss, abandonment, death, and physical, mental, or emotional danger. When the fears we keep buried beneath the surface rise up and threaten to consume, we must make a choice: conquer or be conquered.
The complete list of authors includes Lisa Mangum, Chris Barili, Kevin J. Anderson, Jody Lynn Nye, L. D. Colter, Mary Pletsch, Joy Dawn Johnson, Lauren A. Lang, Chris Mandeville, Terry Madden, Robert J. McCarter, Kristin Luna, Jessica Guernsey, Aubrey Pratt, Nancy D. Greene, C. H. Hung, Steve Pantazis, Melissa Koons, CJ Erick, Lee French, Gregory D. Little, and Rebecca Moesta.
This anthology is the fourth volume produced by the alumni of the Superstars Writing Seminar.
