If you ever had nightmares about your entire city being destroyed by gigantic, nigh-indestructible monsters - or daikaiju, as we like to call them in Japanese fashion - then Attack of the Kaiju Volume 2: The Next Wave is most definitely for you. Better yet, if you ever fantasized about actually being the kaiju that did the city smashing, then this anthology also has your name on it. Or, if you instead fantasized about being a gigantic superhero or the pilot of an enormous kaiju-busting robot - well, your dreams will find good representation here too!

This second installment in the ongoing Attack of the Kaiju series has thirteen tales of giant monster mayhem brought to you by fourteen different authors, as well as three bonus essays by additional writers covering the titanic world of kaiju. This includes such prominent kaiju authors as Matthew Dennion (creator of this series); Skip Peel (long-time scribe of kaiju fiction for G-Fan magazine); Zach Cole (whose foray into kaiju literature began with Kaiju Epoch); and Andres Perez (co-host of the popular KaijuNoir channel on YouTube and creator of the kaiju-fighting mech warrior Draco Azul, now in his own comic book). Also included is the work of Kane Gilmour, John LeMay, Christofer Nigro, D.G. Valdron, Christopher Conde, Alex Dumitru, Neil Riebe, Cody Bratsch, Andrew Nguyen, Nathan Marchand, Kevin Heim, and Dustin Dreyling.

Within these pages humanity desperately tries to fight their way back to the top spot as ruler of the world, but can their paltry military weaponry hope to prevail against the most powerful monsters in the realm of fantastic fiction? And where common soldiers may come up short, could super heroic kyodai and robotic mechs - both of whom can match the kaiju in size and power - possibly help turn the tide in favor of human civilization? Can even the gods themselves help preserve humanity's reign, or are the titanic predators destined to transform their respective Earths into a kaiju kingdom? The answers to these questions will be found in this very tome, so read if you dare! A lot of great excitement and horrifying nightmares await you inside.

Rated PT+ (Prime Time Plus) for violence, language, and intense themes.
