The growth of Bitcoin led to the apocalypse. Ghost dogs roam the Dark Web and protect the minds of those connected from the invasion of digital demons. A writer from Chinese Russia needs a translator for his texts. Aliens stop a nuclear war by freezing missiles in mid-air. Robots hire people, AIs organize gladiator fights. A teenager, summoned by the Order of the Wind, resists the invasion of strangers in the Wandering City. The collection by Jan Badewski includes stories written in different directions, and a short story “Darknet”. Cryptopunk and sci-fi, cosmo-horror and post-apology, “close-in” and transhumanism. Works published in Darker, World of Fantasy and Quasar collections. For the first time under one cover.
