Small, well appointed future. Semi detached. If the end of the world is nigh, then surely it's only sensible to make alternative arrangements. Certainly the Earth has its good points, but what most people need is something smaller and more manageable. Of course there are those who say that's planetary treason, but who cares what the weirdos and terrorists think? Not Nathan. All he cares is that his movie gets made and that's there's somebody left to see it. In marketing terms the end of the world will be very big. Anyone trying to save it should remember that. "From the Paperback edition."

Although a rather obvious plot, this book contained all of the comic elements that you come to expect from Ben Elton. I prefer the style of his later works (such as the excellent Two Brothers) and, for me, this was more reminiscent of something by Douglas Adams but, even so, an enjoyable holiday read.
