“If there was a reason for the violence, we’d already be past the end of the world.” — Fritz Leiber In a desolate, radioactive America, civilization is a whisper and madness rules the streets. Killers are no longer criminals—they are the law. In this ruthless world, where murder is not only legal but required, one man begins to question the blood-soaked order. The Night of the Long Knives is Fritz Leiber at his most chilling and visionary—a prophetic dystopian tale that confronts our darkest instincts and dares to ask: What happens when a society stops pretending to be civilized? Part post-apocalyptic nightmare, part psychological thriller, this is a violent, mind-bending classic that refuses to let go.
