It’s a story of religious, cultist and criminal fanatics, it’s the story of a young man awakening to world around him, it’s a story of loss, it’s an apocalyptic, action-packed thriller, it’s magical, it’s squidpunk, it’s all a bad joke…and it’s simply an example of a master at work.

Re squidpunk and sporepunk–we’re seriously thinking of doing the project, mostly reprints, possibly all reprints, with introductions to both by mushroom and squid experts and afterwords about the lit side.

Coined as a joke in the introduction to an interview with the writer Jeff VanderMeer, it attracted some attention and resulted in VanderMeer's Squidpunk Manifesto.
It remains officially a joke, however.

We're all for jokes here. In fact, just to spite society, we might all start writing squidpunk fanfic.

Some commentators are saying that squidpunk.com is an April 1st joke, but I reckon if enough people talk about it publishers will sense a potential market anyway.

Oh, and it appeared on VanderMeer's site on 31st March, so we'll hold him to it, shall we?
