Apocalypse-a-Day Desk Calendar, Volume 4

Destroying the World, One Day at a Time... In this eclectic assortment of flash fiction, Bram Stoker Award-winner Norman Prentiss concocts a different end-of-the-world entry for each calendar day (Volume 4 covers October through December). The stories range from humorous to bizarre to unsettling, commemorating holiday and observance days (including Halloween, Thanksgiving, and National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day), famous birthdays (Carl Sagan, Claude Monet), or notable historical events (The London Beer Flood of 1814). Other daily entries include letters from the "Dear Apocalypse" advice column, plus multi-part serialized stories "Night Class," "The Exterminator's Visit," and "The Manifestation." Volume 4 offers more than 40,000 words of doomsday fiction, ready to be sampled in small doses just like the pages of those desk calendars you buy for 50%-off in February...or available all at once for your immediate binge-reading pleasure!
