Floods. Earthquakes. Tornados. Asteroids. Nature can be vicious. But when you combine natural disasters with the very unnatural imaginations of the authors in this collection, you get terrors worse than anything Mother Nature has ever thrown at us, forays into nightmarish worlds that make a hurricane look like a light summer breeze.

I'm a fan of a few authors in this collection so I was really looking forward to reading it. When one of them contacted me with a copy of the book to ask if I would give it a read and review, I, of course, said "Yes!".
Short stories are always a hard read for me. I either love them and they are able to come together to be a good, strong cohesive story... or they miss the mark. Unfortunately, many of these stories missed the mark for me. They were either too short to really give a good grasp of th...more

This is a fun little book, for sufficiently macabre values of "fun". The stories are quick reads, different enough not to get repetitive, but held together neatly by the theme. The End Of The World is a pretty weighty theme, but these nine stories manage to spin it in some pretty entertaining ways.
The collection is short (the listing says 168 pages, I finished it handily in one day) but I think it's decent value for the money. This is also a great collection for finding independent authors to ch...more

A collection of short stories that just were not long enough. Although I enjoyed some of them there really was not any particular story that stayed with me to remember. I do like to read books from this author. "Dismember" is one of my favorite. Unfortunitly Pyle's talent do not shine through in this collection. I do recommend this read dispite being too short as a good collection of end of the world as we know it.
These short stories were well-written and entertaining, using a great amount of imagination to weave tales about a range of not-so-natural disasters. All were interesting and concise, although I found too many of them used the age-old taboo of cannibalism as their ultimate horror.
Fun read with very creative end-of-the-world scenarios. I highly recommend it.
A bunch of short fun crazy stories.
