Fourteen terrifying tales of a ruined tomorrow! Was it nuclear war, an uncontrollable pandemic, or forces beyond our reckoning? Will we even know what happened once supply lines have been cut, radio silence has kicked in, and our world has come to a grinding halt? Who will have what it takes to carry on? Who will want to? This cataclysmic anthology casts the reader into a post-apocalyptic world where every step taken and every decision made can mean the difference between life and death. These are epic stories of a world in ruins, but they are also intimate and moving accounts. Our masterful contributors take you by the hand and show you what will be. Don't let go, whatever you do...hold on tight! You will share the characters' struggles as you navigate wastelands or hole up as best you can in the crumbling remains of supermarkets and abandoned houses. You will go hungry. Your feet will grow numb. You will fear, and you might have to fight to the death. But in the end, you will remember it is only a book, and that you can close it, knowing you are safe and sound, because we are not in a post-apocalyptic world. Not here. Not now. Not today. But what will tomorrow bring?The Aftermath - Claire DavonHell Takes All Prisoners - Karen BaylyChasing the White Limousine - Kurt NewtonAn Interlude in the English Civil War - David TurnbullA Kissidougou Christmas - Michael PiccoThe Fields - Mark TowseCast Upon the Water - Joseph S.

Oddly satisfying stories, although some left me wanting more in a good way. Despite the tragic subject, the stories were well written and enjoyable.

One of my favorite parts about reading anthologies is finding new authors whose style I just fall in love with. Bleak and depressing stories but they are told so well from very creative minds.

This anthology deals with post-apocalyptic stuff. Roving gangs, zombies, I think a werewolf, and death duels. A good collection of different types. It's not all zombies. I especially liked Mark Towse's story about children planting trees. So depressing! It's the end of the world, and people are going crazy, and it's fun to read about in our trying times. ( )

As anthologies go, this was one of the better-put-together, with a couple of ourstanding stories, good world-building and believable characters, among which particularly stood out: "Chasing the White Limousine" by Kurt Newton, "An Interlude in the English Civil War" by David Turnbull, "The Deep End" by Cameron Trost and "Help, Scotland" by Malcolm Timperley, the latter, told in a snarky 1st person voice, being my favourite in this compendium. Those stories were, sadly, too short and made me wish tomknow more, what might happen next and how things might, ultimately, turn out.

"The Aftermath" did not make too much sense to me and I did not much care for the misandrist rant that was "Hell Takes All Prisoners". The other stories were mostly OK, with happily only one case of zombie apocalypse among the rest.

All in all, a good collection for a couple of hours of entertainment. ( )

I like a good end of the world story, and my favourite ones are the stories where man fights back and tries to rebuild, make a story where all hope was lost, and build it from there, well I want to advice to everyone who starts reading this anthology, abandon all hope when you start, this stories wont bring you into that hope for future, everything ends in some way in this stories, for me it was a very depressing collection of stories, I had to take several pauses meanwhile to be able to finish this book, I also skipped some stories, but there’s always a pot lid for each pot, so I’ll bet that many of you will love this collection, but for me it was a bit depressing, I will still recommend this book when someone asks for short stories about the end, but I will also say that this is a bit depressing and for have that in attention.

I got a copy from this book from LibraryThing and in the same day got a free book from amazon of the same book and this is my honest opinion. ( )
