Punk'd holds eighteen tales from some of the best authors working in action-horror today, with a slant towards cyberpunk, steampunk, biopunk, and other punk sub-genres you may or may not have heard of. Warriors fighting for their lives amongst the many-verse SNAFU always brings to the game. Think Bladerunner (cyberpunk), Naked Lunch (biopunk), the Crysis videogames (nanopunk), The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (steampunk) and so on… anything that can be considered a high-action monster story set within an obviously ‘punk’ theme.
