Synopsis "The Last Book You'Ll Ever Read: The Complete Series "

A supernatural horror thriller for readers of Chuck Palahniuk (Lullaby and Haunted: A Novel), Marisha Pessl, (Night Film), and Scarlett Thomas (The End of Mr. Y), The Last Book You'll Ever Read tells the terrifying story of a woman who knows the horrific truth about the past - and future - of humankind, and, when captured in her book SATYR, it becomes the catalyst for worldwide, mind-numbing violence. Read this book at your own peril. Olivia Kade wrote the book that ended the world. Now she needs someone who won't read it. Civilization is a lie. Hidden deep in our genes is the truth. And it is slowly clawing its way to the surface. Olivia Kade knows the truth, and she has become the prophet of the coming collapse. Her book, SATYR, is an international bestseller, and it is being blamed for acts of senseless violence and bloodshed all over the world. Olivia's own life is in danger from those who have read her work. Determined to conduct a book tour, she hires security professional Connor Wilson to act as her bodyguard. She only has one requirement: he cannot read her work. John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness meets Chuck Palahniuk's Lullaby in this terrifyingly dangerous tale of the descent of humankind where reality and fantasy collide. Collects the entire smash 8-issue series. For fans of Stephen Graham Jones, Stephen King, Chuck Palahniuk, Alma Katsu, The Ring, and The Ninth Gate. "I truly hope this terrific horror comic is in no way prescient or timely." - Patton Oswalt "...perfectly disturbing and mysterious." - The Beat "It's creepy stuff... you won't want to miss it." - Kurt Busiek (Eisner Award and Harvey Award-winning comics writer of Astro City, The Avengers, Thor, Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, and more)

Cullen Bunn es un guionista estadounidense de cómics y novelas gráficas reconocido por su versatilidad dentro del terror, la fantasía y los superhéroes. Comenzó a ganar notoriedad en el circuito independiente con títulos como The Damned y The Sixth Gun, serie que consolidó su reputación gracias a la mezcla de western sobrenatural, horror y aventura. Posteriormente trabajó para Marvel y DC Comics en personajes como Deadpool, Magneto, Venom, X-Men y Sinestro. Su escritura suele destacar por crear atmósferas inquietantes, antihéroes complejos y criaturas capaces de arruinarle el sueño incluso al lector más valiente… o al menos al que leyó el cómic de madrugada.

Entre las publicaciones vinculadas a su trabajo se encuentra Marvel Must-Have, línea editorial que recopila historias esenciales de personajes clásicos de Marvel y donde han aparecido relatos escritos por Bunn. Además de su trabajo superheroico, ha desarrollado numerosas series de horror para editoriales como Dark Horse, BOOM! Studios y Image Comics, incluyendo Harrow County, Bone Parish y Basilisk. Su capacidad para alternar entre acción, terror psicológico y narrativa pulp lo convirtió en una de las voces más prolíficas del cómic estadounidense contemporáneo.
