Official synopsis Publisher

‘I wish I was half as critically respected as Garth Marenghi, even if I currently trounce him sales-wise (for now)’ RICHARD OSMAN

‘I bought all three novels of the TerrorTome trilogy in a bargain slipcase edition and have read two of them already. Albeit in the wrong order’ DERMOT O’LEARY

‘Garth’s novels steered me through all two hundred and thirty seven syndicated episodes of TV’s !mpossible‘ RICK EDWARDS

Horror author Nick Steen is having visions . . . A sinister Black Steeple; eerie lights in the sky that look like a Catherine wheel but are not remotely a Catherine wheel . . . Plus a giant skeleton with a moustache. Are they omens? Auguries? Portenderings of things to come? (Spoiler: yes, they are.)

For Nick Steen’s imagination is bursting out of his brain and threatening to burst in turn the entirety of Stalkford.

Can Nick stop the aforesaid bursting? Or have things already slightly burst regardless? Is all that we see or seem merely a dream within an Earth that’s been bursted?

From the fevered imaginata of Horror Fiction’s Grand Frightener Garth Marenghi, author of Sunday Times-bestselling Garth Marenghi’s TerrorTome and Garth Marenghi’s Incarcerat, come three freshly rancid tales of . . .

. . .

. . . This Bursted Earth.
