What does the future hold for the evolution of our species?
The first-ever English language print edition of the online cult sensation
Prepare to embark on a speculative odyssey in All Tomorrows: an extraordinary exploration of the potentials and pitfalls of human evolution. In this visionary classic, author and artist C.M. Kosemen imagines how life will be shaped by genetic manipulation, alien intervention and the relentless forces of evolutionary change. From the colonisation of Mars to the ultimate destiny of humanity, the future is bound to unfold in unexpected and unsettling ways...
All Tomorrows is a thrilling tale of survival and a breathtaking work of imagination that catalogues the progress of new human species and documents the trials they face on distant worlds. Some will flourish while others fade into oblivion, but the vital essence of humanity persists against all odds.
This print edition of Kosemen's cult classic features his original illustrations and bonus material including a special commentary, sketchbook excerpts and never-before-seen artwork.
