What if your own body betrayed you?
In the near future, a pandemic rips through the world with a horror never before imagined: muscle tissue liquefies slowly, while the victims remain fully conscious. Bones jut outward in wrong, grotesque angles. Flesh slides like wet fabric. And there is no comfort, because touch itself has become a death sentence.
Softness is danger. Hardness is heresy. All that remains is fracture.
Daniel Vega has survived the plague’s endless trials: neighbors collapsing at his feet, brutal settlements draining the blood of the “unbroken,” and the Watchers, a terrifying new breed of humanity that refuses to melt, their laughter echoing in the ash.
When Daniel discovers his sister Claire in the heart of a fortress built from resin, bone, and blood, he realizes survival comes with a cruel choice: save the person he loves, or burn down a world that has rebuilt itself on marrow and cruelty.
Gruesome, poetic, and unforgettable, Tender Collapse is a descent into the anatomy of fear itself, where dystopia and body horror fuse, and even memory can melt into ash.
For fans of body horror, dystopian terror, and unsettling human drama, this is not just a story of a plague.
It is the story of what breaks and what burns.
