Snyder delivers a cosmic tale about the planet’s disastrous transformation ... and what we become after.

Readers will feel dread as they’re pulled along on this thrilling ride.' — Publishers Weekly'This is a book for horror aficionados to exult in. It’s seamlessly constructed, frequently funny, joyfully queer, and unapologetically gross, with plot twists that feel both wholly unexpected and inevitable.' — Booklist (starred review)
