ⓘ About Malcolm Devlin

“You Will Grow Into Them”, his first short story collection, was shortlisted for the British Fantasy and Saboteur Award. His earlier work was influenced by authors like Philip K. Dick, Alison Moore, Magnus Mills, Aliya Whiteley, Kelly Link, and Robert Aickman. With “And Then I Woke Up”, Malcolm had a couple things he wanted to explore. One was the idea of the way we can fall under the sway of select false narratives, to the point that we actively perpetuate them instead of try and comprehend how they came about. Another was the trend of zombie stories veering into survivalist fantasies. Stories where the “heroes” have total license to just mow down this “horde” of people that they view as monsters.
