The Lazarus Condition
Matthew Daley is an enigma. He’s appeared after seven years – eager to pick up the threads of his life, make contact once more with his loved ones. Something that’s not so easy to do when your family’s last memory is of attending your funeral, and watching as your coffin is lowered into the ground…
The Lazarus Condition is an emotional, moving tale of loss, grief, redemption, and why you should be careful what you wish for. It might not be what you expected.
And you will get what’s coming to you.
Dead Time
Helen Kirby is having one hell of a day. As she struggles, through the fog of a chronic hangover, to understand why the world around her seems to have gone to ruin between the time she passed out the night before and the time she woke up this morning, we find out why this New Year does indeed herald a New Dawn.
Dead Time is a new take on the zombie tale – one that shows us without question that any differences between us and the undead are purely a matter of…taste
Quotes
‘Few of us fear werewolves, vampires, or even Norman Bates. But that end of the road we all travel and its mystery and inevitability give each of us pause. The health and well-being of my family and friends play a much bigger part in my own nightmares than Freddy Krueger ever did. Paul Kane understands that… There are moments of violence that jump out at you here, but it is the quiet interaction between Life and Death that concerns Kane in his novella: its raison d’etre… An absorbing tale of terror that takes you in a direction that I didn’t expect…Paul Kane has crafted a nifty little story with that greatest of gifts: the element of surprise.’
From the Introduction by Mick Garris, Masters of Horror.
‘Paul Kane's The Lazarus Condition is a wonderfully unsettling tale of resurrection, self-recrimination, and our reluctance to confront issues of both mortality and immortality. Humanity leaves behind the remains of our loved ones and walls of our hearts as best we can from feeling their absence, sometimes as easily but always with as much necessity as a snake shedding its skin.
‘Kane holds up a mirror to show us just how frightened of the end we really are and how much of human nature is involved in moving on after loss. He's here to remind us that none of us is ever really ready to leave this life...and certainly not ready to come back and answer for what we might have done while living it. An excellent novella, backed up with a quick jolt short story called “Dead Time”, which is, in some ways, the other side of the coin.
‘Paul Kane has offered you a dark and contemplative gift.
I recommend you take it.’
Christopher Golden – Hellboy: The Dragon Pool, Prowlers, The Myth Hunters, The Boys are Back in Town .
‘A brilliant zombie story with a hell of a difference -- compelling, sensitive, deeply touching and leavened with a subtle humour.’
Simon Clark – Night of the Triffids, Darkness Demands, Death's Dominion.
‘A disturbing and very creepy take on the zombie theme, this one builds slowly and effectively to a surprising, moving climax.’
