Description
The Labyrinth is a unique vision of a dystopian future from one of the most sought-after visual storytellers in the world.
A world covered by ruins and ash, the remnants of an otherworldly phenomenon that has ravaged the earth’s atmosphere and forced the few survivors deep underground. Matt, Sigrid, and Charlie leave the safe harbour of the enclave for an expedition onto the wastelands of the surface world. During their journey, they are forced to confront dark secrets from the time before civilization’s fall.
Simon Stålenhag is the internationally acclaimed author and artist behind Tales From the Loop, Things From the Flood, and The Electric State. He is world-renowned for his highly imaginative images and stories depicting illusive sci-fi phenomena in mundane, hyper-realistic Scandinavian landscapes. Perfect for fans of everything from Stranger Things to Jurassic Park to Westworld.
PRAISE for SIMON STALENHAG

'No words to describe this novel in pictures. Stålenhag defined a whole new aesthetic for sci-fi in the 21st century' Damien Walter on The Electric State
'A chilling, unforgettable visual and narrative experience' Locus on The Electric State
Stålenhag's 'stories crawl into my brain and mess with my memory of history, time, and place' NPR on The Electric State
