They are going to do it; they are going to kill everyone on earth. The Akolastoi, they hate that which they do not control, and the evil they are preparing now will extinguish the human race. All that will remain will be their incurious drones, obedient to the dictates of those sinister over-minds. The crew of the Artemis; those few that remain of them, they have the proof of this. In the year 2058 their mission started; to catch the comet and ride it out were men had never been. What has happened in the many long years since the mission began...it is as impossible to describe as it is to believe. There is very little time left. On the long journey the crew lost contact. They left a world of intrigue and rancor, narrowly surviving many trials and dangers. They escaped the horrors that fell on the world. The wars, the plagues, the suffering and cataclysm that fell; they knew nothing of these catastrophes. They could not have foreseen what would emerge from all the disaster. It had been so hard to find the truth, to winnow it from all the lies and the deceit. The crew has been shattered, and the truth holds their only hope to save the world. The truth has to be heard and believed by all who remain. There is only one chance, and the odds are very grim. It is war again; a war unlike any other before. Likely it is the last war; there can be only two ways it will end; in Man's salvation or his annihilation. All hope rests on one last fateful day; hope that the World can be saved from its ending. Graphic and thought provoking, A History of the World's Ending is full of action, suspense and adventure. It borrows a theme from Washington Irving and readers may be reminded of the works of George Orwell, Fyodor Dostoyevski, J.R.R Tolkien and James Clavell.
