FRAGMENTS_eBook_FB2.jpg

Interwoven throughout the movie, Fragments of the Outpost is a 12-part anthology that raises the curtains on the ill-fated winter of 1982 at Outpost 31, looking behind the scenes, each short story filling in the blanks—threading the needle and tying together the scenarios, characters, and surprising six-day timeline, providing a chilling, thought-provoking, and engaging companion to the film.

 

From Todd Cameron, author of Snowblind, this anthology is available as a free PDF/Word download. More info HERE!
