Tales from the Toxic World.

Tales from the Toxic World is a book of short stories from the Toxic World Series of novels by Sean Mclachlan.




I am a fan of the Toxic World setting & novels. I would go as far to say that they are my favourite of the Post Apocalyptic genre. These short stories are set in between Radio Hope and the Refugees from the Righteous Horde books but do not contain any story spoilers from the main series of novels. Although they do feature some of the characters. The book also introduces a new setting/township Tiretown. I do wonder if Sean Mclachlan is going to feature this town in the future of the series somehow, although he does state that Tiretown and New City (the city central to the Toxic World Series) are unaware of each other’s existence. Maybe it will get its own novel? I hope so as the Tiretown story was a gripping read. 


All the stories are great, they add extra depth and colour to the Toxic World. Some of the stories make for good plot hooks for Post Apoc RPGs. 


If you want to read some good post apocalyptic short stories that aren’t the usual run of the mill PA stories then I recommend this book.
