As the release date grows nearer for VOLK: A Novel of Radiant Abomination, we offer a small treat: the entire prologue, which appeared in a slightly different form in my 2014 collection Knife Fight and Other Struggles.

The prologue takes us to a certain Munich beerhall, in the years after the War to End all Wars, by way of a peculiar Bavarian spa.

It is called ORLOK, and it is right here. 

VOLK: A Novel of Radiant Abomination is available from ChiZine Publications (and all the usual sources) right here.
