Monster(S)

MONSTER(S): A World of Pain explores grimdark sci-fi through memory, inheritance, violence, and the cost of being shaped into something useful. Samuel C. Lacoste’s stories look beyond brutality to examine what pain preserves, what it destroys, and what remains when identity, family, and humanity are pushed past recognition.

Content note/genre trigger warning: Grimdark fiction often includes violent, traumatic, morally harsh, and emotionally intense material. Reader discretion is advised.
