Pilgrimages in a new world
edited by Dirk Flinthart

Six hundred years ago, a group of pilgrims made their way to Canterbury, and Geoffrey Chaucer created one of the great works of English literature.

A hundred years from now, a nuclear-powered steam train is stopped by a massive storm on its journey to Canterbury, the new captial of an England struggling to rise from the ashes of the twenty-first century.

As the waters rise with the storm’s fury, the weird and wonderful passengers tell the stories of a new age…

Canterbury 2100: Pilgrimages in a new world is published by Agog! Press.
