With the diversity of authors in this collection, the stories cover a wide range of genres, viewpoints, and styles. This book has it all... There is a short story for just about any type of audience. Come take a look at the absurdity of future wars."—Manhattan Book Review "Although this might seem to be a limited theme, the various authors have risen to the challenge, and produced a wide variety of fiction incorporating science fiction and fantasy concepts into tales of struggles that do not always take place on battlefields."—Tangent Online "This book raises questions about who has access to what technology and to what ends that technology is used. In some of these stories, there is a philosophical core that makes the heart-thumping action all the more meaningful... Much like the previous anthology, I enjoyed it quite a lot."— Never Was Magazine Praise for Weird World War III: "Weird World War III stokes our collective fears with tales of worst-case scenario nightmares by some of the best writers in the business."—This Is Horror UK "A fascinating way to see how different authors of speculative fiction approach a similar theme... an enjoyable collection of speculative fiction presenting several interesting takes on WWIII scenarios between the US and Russia, the overall quality was high."—Tangent Online "A collection that runs the gamut in terms of what it does with the premise."—Sea Lion Press "Weird World War III is a buffet of war-related speculative fiction, guaranteed to entertain anyone who likes destroying humanity. Who would have known that blasting this species to Kingdom Come could be so fun?"— Never Was Magazine
