Party at the World's End

"They were ready to die. After Rushmore, they knew there would be more bodies. But they joined anyway. They said "you've got to kill me in the sunlight." But Lilith said, "Kill them there. Do it where the media sees shaky footage of government-hired mercenaries lobbing mortar fire into a psytrance festival under cover of moonlight."

I once thought that they were just foolish kids that followed us blindly. 200 teens strewn about like discarded dixie cups after a rave in a field, between two bluffs in the Black Hills. Curiously close to the death toll at Wounded Knee.

I was wrong. They weren't just blind fools, they were the bloody sacrifice, offered up by Lilith in her mad ploy for immortality.

But the time to fight and win was over, now was the time to die a heros death that would be heard round the world. Even as the one candle goes out, another, darker one comes to light." -Dionysus

This is the story of the Fallen who walk amongst us, and hints of the world to come. Lyrical and subversive, surrealist and raw, Party At The World's End isn't afraid to defy expectation at every turn.

• "Brutal, darkly funny, and, above all, honest." Powell's Books 'Short List'.
• "A progressive fictional universe created by a wickedly talented scribe... Philip K Dick might have company someday..." Brooke Burgess, the Creator of award-winning animated series Broken Saints.
• "Curcio's novels resemble strange and intricate life stories, bubbles of fiction floating in the depths of the collective subconscious. Occasionally they rise to the surface and burst into the conscious mind, releasing dreamscapes where fantasy merges with the mundane. Demigods cavort with goth-punk teenagers. Ambivalent authority figures lord over underground networks. Pseudo-shamanic rituals and sex magick abound." Reality Sandwich.com interview.
