Welcome to Litsy!

“Everybody dies, everything ends—but not now. Not now.”

This book covers the end of the world as we know it, or at least the end of humanity, and how that may come to pass. Chapters feature ways we‘ll go out like pandemics, nuclear weapons, climate change, overpopulation, war, cosmic events and more. Far from depressing, this was a fun look at the way humans have thought about the end of times over many years, through books, movies, etc.

What a great zombie book. Looking forward to reading more in the series.

“(Crowley) rather liked people. It was major failing in a demon. Oh, he did his best to make their short lives miserable, because that was his job, but nothing he could think up was half as bad as the stuff they thought up themselves. They seemed to have a talent for it. It was built into the design, somehow. They were born into a world that was against them in a thousand little ways, and then devoted most of their energies to making it worse.”

When in doubt: read a Neil Gaiman book.

(2016) Here's a mostly-excellent collection of apocalyptic and postapocalyptic stories featuring protagonists with disabilities. Standouts for me are Stephanie Gunn's "To take into the air my quiet breath," about sisters with cystic fibrosis who survive a global plague; and John Chu's "Selected afterimages of the fading," about an apocalypse in which inattention causes the world to fade. I also quite liked Janet Edwards's "I will remember you."

I don't think I've ever even thought this, but the TV series were better. There were way too many characters, who did of said funny things that envolved the plot, but had no substance. It was however easy to follow, and I moderatly enjoyed the time, but I expected more. Maybe if I read it before I saw the series it would have been better, but we'll never know.

I have several books that I own more than one copy. But I think Good Omens is the most with 5 physical copies and 2 audiobooks (one full cast version & the original version read by Martin Jarvis). Plus, I have the DVDs of Good Omens season 1 along with the Script Book.
