A is for Apocalypse
A is for Apocalypse | Rhonda Parrish
1 post | 2 read
"In A is for Apocalypse, the world ends in both fire and ice-and by asteroid, flood, virus, symphony, immortality, the hands of our vampire overlords, and crowdfunding. A stellar group of authors explores over two dozen of the bangs and whispers that might someday take us all out. Often bleak, sometimes hopeful, always thoughtful, if A is for Apocalypse is as prescient as it is entertaining, we're in for quite a ride." - Amanda C. Davis, author of The Lair of the Twelve Princesses What do you get when you take twenty six amazing writers, randomly assign them a letter of the alphabet and give them complete artistic freedom within a theme? A is for Apocalypse Twenty six apocalyptic stories written by both well-known and up-and-coming writers. Monsters, meteors, floods, war-the causes of the apocalypses in these tales are as varied as the stories themselves. This volume contains work by Ennis Drake, Beth Cato, Kenneth Schneyer, Damien Angelica Walters, K. L. Young, Marge Simon, Milo James Fowler, Simon Kewin, C.S. MacCath, Steve Bornstein and more! "Editor Rhonda Parrish gives us apocalyptic fiction at its finest. There's not a whimper to be heard amongst these twenty-six End of the World stories. A wonderful collection." -Deborah Walker, Nature Futures author. "One of the "good ones..". creative and imaginative works of short fiction around a compelling theme." - Ian Dawe, Sequart Magazine ..".with an assortment of plots and genres (some horror, some science fiction, even a few dabbling in romance and humour) there's a little bit here for everyone. Fans of apocalyptic tales should find A is for Apocalypse entertaining..."- Jess Landry, Hellnotes

Not the tagged book but by the same editor.
A collection of stories about fairies using each letter of the alphabet.

This was an interesting anthology, some of the stories were really good, others were too short to really understand the story properly. I loved the alphabet link to the stories. I enjoyed trying to guess what the word might be. My favourite story was G is for Gentry.
