Review:

"EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED is the newest anthology from the stellar team at Grey Matter Press. (It) focuses on stories that are a blend of horror, science fiction and dark fantasy. Choosing a favorite from this anthology is almost impossible. I have been raving about Grey Matter Press' books for a while now...and that trend will continue with EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED. Grey Matter Press is hands down one of the best publishers of dark fiction, and the quality of their books makes each one of them an absolute must-own." -- THE HORROR BOOKSHELF

"EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED contains a plethora of inventive and entertaining tales that exist at the intersection of horror, science fiction and fantasy. EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED is an outstanding collection of horror stories that are bursting with original ideas, startling concepts and terrifying prose." -- HORROR NEWS NETWORK

"The stories in EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED are solid and the thread of desperation and survival is present. Most deal with a bleak sense of survival, the settings change and the details and characters, but every one involves a tenacious attempt to hold the fuck on in a world uncontrolled." -- SHOCK TOTEM

PRAISE FOR GREY MATTER PRESS:
"In less than two years, Grey Matter Press has managed to establish itself as one of the premiere purveyors of horror fiction currently in existence via both a series of killer anthologies--SPLATTERLANDS (2013), OMINOUS REALITIES (2013), EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED (2014)--and John F.D. Taff's harrowing novella collection THE END IN ALL BEGINNINGS (2014)." - FANGORIA

"I would read any of their books without question based on the merit of past releases." - THE HORROR BOOKSHELF

"The dark, all-encompassing theme seems to be the trademark of Grey Matter Press. When asked for a referral for a good short story collection I often state without hesitation to the very press that has enchanted my reading attention." - Dave Gammon, HORROR NEWS
