Publisher's Summary:
The Doomsday siren calls on civilization's last day. Natural disaster. Nuclear war. Pandemics. These are the ways the world ends.

The Walking Dead meets The Incredible Journey in 14 incredible tales of nobility, self-sacrifice, and unconditional love as told by today's most talented independent authors. Humans will learn an old lesson anew - that animals, the heroes in these tales, might just make the difference in their quest to survive one more day.

Critic Reviews:
"One of the most original and captivating collections of end-of-the-world 'tails', shown through the eyes of an amazing cast of unforgettable furry and feathered characters. Kudos to all the authors for bringing to life such refreshing and compelling four-legged or winged heroes. Whether or not you are an animal lover, these action-packed yet heartwarming stories will leave you hungry for a sequel! Truly a good read." (R.J. Pineiro, author of The Fall)
"Tails of the Apocalypse is a book project worthy not only of its heart-felt cause, but also of its crisp, imaginative writing. I found myself captured by the gripping power of 'story', and this for me is telling, as I don't normally delve into this genre. With this collection I was given an opportunity to step beyond myself into something new, something fresh...and I was captured. Thank you! Very well done, and highly recommended." (Graham Salisbury, author of Under the Blood-Red Sun and Hunt for the Bamboo Rat)

Anthologies can be tough. They can contain gems and lumps of coal. This particular anthology is very even. All the stories were good. I felt it was important to include a non-spoiler summary of each story. The authors deserve to have their stories highlighted individually instead of a collective rating.
The Water Finders Shadow by David Bruns
Mr. Bruns made me cry. The story was beautiful and very moving and frankly it hit very close to home, my home and my elderly dog. In a world where water is the most precious resource, the water finder is the highest regarded position. That is until their gift is gone and they are sold to slavers.
