Apocalyptic Four

Robert J. Sawyer is “the dean of Canadian Science Fiction,” according to The Ottawa Citizen, “just about the best science-fiction writer out there,” according to the Denver Rocky Mountain News, and “by any reckoning, among the most successful Canadian authors ever,” according to Maclean’s.

Robert Sawyer has this to say (among other things) about the Women of the Apocalypse:

This is, without doubt, one of the major theme anthologies of 2009, and deserves a place on the Aurora Award ballot — as do the individual stories. The anthology recently made the bestsellers’ list published in the Calgary Herald.

The Apocalyptic Four have been remiss!  Well, really, we’ve been extremely busy with a variety of book signings over this past month.

On November 13th (Lucky Friday the 13th) We shared Pages on Kensington Books in - Calgary, Alberta, with Craig DiLouie (The Great Planet Robbery) and we had a fantastic time!  Meeting so many new friends, and touching base with old friends!  Our thanks to Pages. And we are truly sorry 6 foot Ryan frightened you!  He had a sleepover, you see….

On November 21st, 3/4 of us — plus 6 foot Ryan of course — hung out at Wee Book Inn on Whyte Avenue (Edmonton, Alberta).

We sold a bunch of books, and met some wonderful people.  And dogs!  Must never forget the dogs!  Thanks to Dave the Manager and the wonderful staff.  We had a great time!

On November 22nd, we were thrilled to find out that Women of the Apocalypse made it on the Calgary Herald Bestseller List!  WooHoo!

Four women. Four shooters. Four destinies to save the world…

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are coming. And four Archangels find the perfect champions to save the world: fighters, warriors, soldiers, and brave men,  all ready to fight for humanity against end times. All they have to do is drink a shooter — a caustic mix of alcohol and divinity that will imbue them with the conviction to battle the Four.
