What Remains

A sci-fi, fantasy, horror anthology

From sacrificing loved ones or oneself, to doing what it takes to keep them alive, these stories shake the soul, rip out its insecurities and flay them on the page.

Careful who you trust. Some quandaries have no right answer when we cannot save what we love most — or when isolation, desperation, and betrayal leave you no choice. Take the journey with us to see What Remains when civility, decency, and sanity have all but fled.

3D render of the book 'What Remains,' an anthology by Inked in Gray, edited by Dakota Rayne. The cover features a dark, eerie scene with a pile of skulls and bones in the foreground, set against a textured background that appears to be a charred or burned surface, with fiery red and orange streaks running vertically. The title 'What Remains' is written in bold, distressed white text along the left side, with the words 'An Anthology by Inked in Gray' running vertically on the right. The overall design evokes a sense of horror, decay, and the remnants of destruction, fitting the grim and ominous tone of the anthology.
