Earworm
ByPublisher Description
A walking tour of the ends of worlds...
Lockdown. 2020. Hector was alone in his one-room flat, keeping himself occupied by studying a number of ancient occult texts.
He discovered a secret that allowed him to escape into other worlds, to travel through vast deserts and to view alien stars. Hector was still alone out among the fungal groves and eternal twilights, but there is so much to see—and there's something else, something that's just on the tip of his tongue, like a tune that he can just about, almost, remember…
When restrictions ease, Hector is able to share this secret with his friends, who are at first awed, and then horrified by the things Hector has seen, the things he has done.
But that's nothing compared to what he will do next…
A standalone novelette.
