Dark Matter Presents: Zero Dark Thirty

DARK MATTER MAGAZINE'S 30 DARKEST STORIES FROM OUR FIRST TWO YEARS (2021-2022)

Every story published in Dark Matter Magazine is a best-of story to us, and that's why we had to do something different when choosing stories for the magazine's first ever trade paperback anthology. Enter Zero Dark Thirty, a curated collection of the thirty darkest stories to haunt our magazine's pages during the first two years of publication (2021-2022). These are the most depressing and deranged tales the magazine has to offer. Enter if you must, but beware. Edited by Dark Matter Editor-in-Chief, Rob Carroll.
