ShaDaa: Tales of The Apocalypse

(Book #1 in the Sha'Daa Series)

Once every 10,000 years comes the Sha'Daa, two days when evil crosses the dimensional barriers and attacks the Earth. Sha'Daa: Tales of the Apocalypse is a collection of frightening tales that run the gamut from soul-shaking horror, to wry and ironic takes on the end of reality as we know it. Unlikely heroes in unusual locations around the globe battle not only for their own survival, but for all of humanity. For ten millennium demons and monsters have been mere folktales, relegated to obscure campfire orations to which we no longer pay heed. Make no mistake, the realms of hell endure, their denizens slaver with hatred, and now their time has come. Are you ready for the Sha "Daa? Created by Michael H. Hanson, edited by Edward F. McKeown, with stories by eleven writers and with an introduction by Michael Resnick. Writers: C. J. Henderson Deborah Koren Arthur Sanchez Edward F. McKeown Jamie Schmidt D. R.

A Tapestry of Terror

While each story could stand on its own; together they make a powerful tome. Ranging from humorous to dramatic they are all woven together by a central theme - Sha Daa. Taken at face value the title states "Tales of the Apocalypse." It is much more, however, as the horror is tempered with hope. This is a book that will give hours of enjoyment.

Excellent book

Sha Daa This is a very well written collection of stories that link one to another. I enjoyed every moment I spent reading it. From start to finish this book will grab your attention and keep you wanting to see what happens on the next page. No matter what your taste in books may be this one will be a very enjoyable adventure. I for one can not wait for the next book to come out. Do not miss this adventure!!

Can't put it down

When you pick up this fascinating collection, be sure you have some time to devote to it because for sure you are going to have a hard time putting it down. Sha'daa represents the work of a group of authors, making for an interesting mix of styles and approaches, but all the writers work together on a shared theme. The theme is, the world might be ending! The only thing that can stop it is if a group of totally disparate people, each working in his or her own way, manage to...well, you get the idea. It was a fast-paced read, from start to end, and I for one hated to see it end. Maybe there will be a sequel?

The idea of one turns to many

This book is unlike any other i have read before. All of the authors stories work extremely well together, along with all the short stories tied together. It provides serious, yet entertaining tales that are good for every reader. The characters are very strange, but they are all explained, and you get a sense of "i know that guy"

Creative, masterful story shared by many, created by one

This book is a masterful creation, put together by several authors, but one author being the driving force in something called a 'shared-world anthology'. I liked this book, it was very creative, and the stories flowed quite well, tying into each other in a very interesting way. The character of the Salesman begins as creepy and mysterious and then ends as someone who you go, "Hey I see where this guy is coming from.." and "okay so THAT'S what happened" kind of thing. Its a craft when stories can tie together like that.
