The Apocalypse Reader

by Justin Taylor

The Apocalypse Reader Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

These are the ways the world ends.

Thirty-four new and selected Doomsday scenarios: an enthralling collection of work by canonical literary figures, contemporary masters, and a few rising stars, all of whom have looked into the future and found it missing. Across boundaries of place and time, these writers celebrate the variety and vitality of the short story as a form by writing their own conclusions to the story of the world. Obliteration has never hurt so good.
