Traffic is piling up, and strange things are heading your way in this new collection by World Fantasy Award-winning author Tobias S. Buckell. In these twenty-four stories you'll find inhabitants of a small town who won't vaccinate against a zombie plague, a long sentry keeping motorists from stumbling into something ancient and evil, a man who puts stranded ghosts to rest, an ex-soldier traveling the seas who trades his life of hardship for a return to swords and blood, and many more tales of speculative fiction. Buckell's fertile imagination is on display in Shoggoths in Traffic and Other Stories as he comments on edgy issues of injustice and offers a thorny path to discover the human heart and all the strange things humans do. All the while, he keeps looking over your shoulder, waiting for rush hour to end.
