"We're all in pain. We try to keep the gates closed by falling in love, travelling, avoiding responsibility, getting drunk, taking drugs...anything to lose ourselves. But the dull ache remains in each of us. These stories are about the gates opening." The Gate Theory holds six tales by award-winning Australian author Kaaron Warren. Each story resonates with the pain of living.
"Kaaron Warren is without doubt one of the world's leading writers of dark fiction, and The Gate Theory showcases her talent perfectly… Her prose is powerful, her sense of place is evocative and her imagination knows no bounds. This is the kind of book that you will remember long after you finish reading the last story."

"Each of these stories stretches the boundaries of both storytelling and character. Warren's is a unique voice in horror. She has an ability to take us to places so utterly disturbing yet simultaneously so mundane and believable, that you start to look at people you meet with a sidelong glance. I call it The Warren Perception. It's unavoidable. Read her work and you will start to look at people as she does. This is not necessarily a good thing, but it's fascinating."
