Contained within this anthology are dark stories and works of art that explore the shadow side of reality. They are disturbed works that journey hopelessly through the downtrodden fringes of society, across the deepest reaches of space, and into the darkest, most troubled corners of the mind. Enter if you must, but beware.
The seventh issue of Dark Matter Magazine includes nine original dark science fiction stories, part one of a serialized novella, one poem, one reprint story, two art features, two interviews with industry leaders, an augmented reality cover, and dozens of full-color illustrations throughout.
