"Taaqtumi" is an Inuktitut word that means "in the dark"--and these spine-tingling horror stories by Northern writers show just how dangerous darkness can be. A family clinging to survival out on the tundra after a vicious zombie virus. A door that beckons, waiting to unleash the terror behind it. A post-apocalyptic community in the far North where things aren't quite what they seem. With chilling tales from award-winning authors Richard Van Camp, Rachel and Sean Qitsualik-Tinsley, Aviaq Johnston, and others, this collection will thrill and entertain even the most seasoned horror fan.

Very interesting and all excellent writers! I wish some of the stories were longer to develop them more, and I didn't quite get the spookies I was hoping for, but I'll definitely be looking into some of these authors more!

Very different voices and a unique spin on traditional stories in a contemporary context. Cannibalism to VR.
