Excerpted from the introduction:

We know a program called Delta Green really existed. You can find a couple of references to it in documents uncovered by Freedom of Information Act requests. Delta Green was a psychological operations unit in World War II, created to take advantage of the bizarre occult beliefs of Axis leaders. The public documents, which may have been released with the name unredacted by mistake, don’t say whether it had any success. The OSS was shut down after the war. Many of its people helped launch the CIA in 1947. We can only speculate whether the OSS’s lessons from Delta Green informed the CIA’s notorious psychological operations in the coming decades. 

Conspiracy theorists have done more than speculate. Delta Green came back as a secret project to track down Nazis after the war, they say. Delta Green brought federal agents, spies, and special forces together for missions too secret even for the CIA. Delta Green was the precursor and rival to Majestic-12, the U.S. government conspiracy that allied itself with aliens after Roswell. Delta Green fights otherworldly monsters and evil sorcerers under the cover of the Global War on Terror. Once you climb into the rabbit hole, the fall never ends.

In this book we turn up tales from the rabbit hole: Delta Green case histories rendered as short stories.

They begin in the Dust Bowl, with a Naval intelligence unit supposedly called “P4” and memories of the abandoned New England town of Innsmouth (another bottomless well of conspiracy theories).

They look at the days after World War II when secret agents pursued Nazis all over Europe, the early CIA attempted its first infamous schemes, and anticommunist witch-hunts seized on American terrors back home.

They bring us through the Cold War desperation of the Seventies and Eighties, when America was shocked by its own crimes and Delta Green allegedly went underground again.

And they come to the present day, and a Delta Green divided after it rebuilt itself in the secret government—but many old outlaws refused to trust the new order.

Edited by Shane Ivey with Adam Scott Glancy.

Jason Mical and Laurel Halbany's stories were extraordinary. I hope they continue writing, I haven't had any luck finding more work by them

The download has two versions of each file, identically named. Is there a way to tell which one is the updated version?

I haven't followed the novel's arc. Will I be able to enjoy this (and the previous anthology) on its own?

Hey Nick, there's no arc per se, just stories set in the same world.

Cheers!

As one of the contributors (my first short-story sale!), maybe I'm not supposed to write a review, so I'll post here. Just looking at the list of authors--Detwiller, Glancy, Stolze, KEN FREAKIN HITE!, Halbany, Tynes, Mana, Ivey, Goodfellow--holy freakin cow! I got in that? How did I get in that?? Anyway, I have Tales from Failed Anatomies, the first book of this two-parter, and it's terrific. Also a very handsome, well-made hardcover, so I'm really looking forward to the physical edition.

Livres Scannés
Ces livres électroniques ont été créés physiquement en scannant les originaux et en utilisant les images obtenues pour faire les pages pdf. Chaque page est passée par un programme de reconnaissance optique ces caractères (OCR) afin d'essayer de déchiffrer le texte imprimé. Le résultat de ce procédé OCR est situé de manière invisible derrière l'image de chaque page scannée, pour permettre d'utiliser des recherches de texte. Cependant, un texte dans un livre donné sur un fond graphique ou avec des fontes manuelles ne sera probablement pas reconnu par le programme OCR, et ne sera donc pas pris en compte dans les recherches. Aussi certains livres imposants peuvent être redimensionnés pour correspondre au système, et peuvent ne pas avoir cette fonctionnalité de recherche de texte. La plupart des livres les plus vieux et en rupture d'impression sont dans le format images scannées.
