An anthology of chilling tales from contemporary China, translated into English for the very first time.

A sister to Ni’s British Fantasy Award-nominated anthology, A Celebration of Chinese Science Fiction, Sinophagia collects 14 dazzling tales of contemporary Chinese horror that have been translated into English for the very first time.

This collection has been carefully curated, to go beyond people’s expectations, of hopping vampires and hanging ghosts. It provides a fascinating insight into the psyche of modern China - and is absolutely spine chilling.

It includes a wide range of voices, from China’s most well-known creepy story tellers to bold upcoming writers with a sense of urban horror - a truly ground-breaking collection.
