THIS WAY TO THE END TIMES: Classic Tales of the Apocalypse, gathers 21
compelling, gripping stories of the not-too-distant demise of the earth
as we know it. And what a collection. From little-known, brilliant tales
by sci-fi legends Jules Vernes and Olaf Stapledon, to intense short
works by sci-fi masters Ursula K. Le Guin, Connie Willis, Jack Vance,
and Brian W. Aldiss, to haunting works by contemporary authors Dale
Bailey, Alvaro Zinos-Amaro, Karen Haber and Megan Arkenberg, THIS WAY TO
THE END TIMES paves the road to the fantastical future, alternating
humor with grit, and hope with ghastly post apocalyptic visions. Guest
editor Robert Silverberg--beloved sci-fi master--hand-picked each story,
and offers an introduction to each, as well as an introduction to the
anthology as a whole. A unique collection for longtime and new fans of
speculative fiction, THIS WAY TO THE END TIMES roars into the future
wide-eyed and full speed ahead.
