Love is for idiots. Like me.
"There are a few things I don't want to talk about. With no one. But this has nothing to do with you, okay? Everything is going wrong in my life right now. You are the only positive.”
"I? Positive? You must be pretty desperate.”
"Or quite a crush."

“Between tingling giggles and honey rush
I want to kiss you for the first time."

What remains when love goes. Eight last messages from loved ones and the stories of how each last message came about. Eight authors give youthful melancholy a voice and write about love in its most diverse forms.

Heart Enemies - Love in times of fear
It was still no more than a promise of winter, an ice-cold threat, but it had been getting colder for weeks; eternal summer had turned into autumn and now a new season was beginning inexorably.
An ice age.
My eyes fell on Zen's hands.
"You're shaking," I informed him.
- Cravings
Strange, colorful worlds, threats from nature, repressive governments, the fight for survival, escape and dangerous opponents - the themes of the collected stories are so diverse and exciting. But one thing connects them all: love. We meet desperate lovers, forbidden love, love that gives hope and love that seems impossible. Almost 400 authors took part in our writing competition, which was carried out in cooperation with the Friedrich Oetinger Verlag, and submitted their short stories under the theme "Panem - Love in Times of Fear".
The 6 winning texts are summarized in this anthology. Immerse yourself in terrifying worlds and accompany our heroes on their adventurous journeys.
