The First Five Minutes of the Apocalypse

Book Overview

This is not a book about the apocalypse.

In these pages, you won't find the hero. You won't find the ticking clock. You will not be in the room when they press the big red button. Instead, you'll find new life in the face of certain death, a boy whose prayers are answered in the worst way, mothers and sisters and friends who just want another second with their loved ones, and those who just want a moment to themselves.

These are the stories from the ground. The experiences of those who saw the world come to its violent conclusion, and what really mattered at the end of all things.
