Death You Take, just one of the many tales in this anthology.
To Wake The Dead is a new take on the raising the dead
phenomenon. What happens when people rationally try to investigate the
living dead, and to give meaning to their existence? Can such an
otherworldly occurrence be justified with the current scientific
understanding of living things? How would people, and society, react
to raising the dead, especially if it were to become routine, and even
done against their wishes?
Who would control the use of those who had the ability
to raise the dead, and what would they be used to do? If it was our
government, could they trusted? Ultimately, who could you trust?
To Wake The Dead examines exactly what happens when the
borders separating the living from the dead are redrawn, sometimes
forcefully, and sometimes violently. No matter what positions the new
boundaries occupy, the world will never be the same.
