Since its initial publication in 1978, <i>The Stand</i> has been considered Stephen King's seminal masterpiece of apocalyptic fiction. It has sold millions of copies and has been adapted twice for television. Generations of writers have been impacted by its dark yet ultimately hopeful vision of the end and new beginning of civilisation, and its stunning array of characters.<br/><br/>Now for the first time, Stephen King has fully authorised a return to the harrowing world of <i>The Stand</i> through this original short story anthology, as presented by award-winning authors and editors Christopher Golden and Brian Keene. Bringing together some of today's greatest and most visionary writers, <i>The End of the World As We Know It</i> features unforgettable, all-new stories set during and after (and some perhaps long after) the events of <i>The Stand</i> - brilliant, terrifying, and painfully human tales that will resonate with readers everywhere as an essential companion to the classic, bestselling novel.<br/><br/>Featuring an introduction by Stephen King, a foreword by Christopher Golden and afterword by Brian Keene.
