A sci-fi horror artbook where a mysterious phenomenon turns Earth into a world of ash and decay, the setup seems simple. Likewise, the characters — a trio of survivors journeying across the wastes — seem easy to relate to. Yet the deeper you venture, the more you realize The Labyrinth is a complex tangle of secrets, mysteries, and revelations so gripping that it never truly lets you go. So, for this entry into the archive, we’ll attempt to decipher this masterpiece of dark worldbuilding. And like my videos on Stålenhag’s other series, you can purchase the artbook using the links in the description.
