Review (PDF) Exponential Apocalypse
There had been twenty-two apocalypses to date. There were now four distinct variations of humanity roaming the earth – six, if you counted the undead. It had been suggested that there really should have been a new word to describe "the end of everything forever," but most people had stopped noticing, much less caring, after the tally hit double digits. Not to mention the failure of "forever" in living up to its potential. The last apocalypse wasn't even considered a cataclysm by most major governments. It was just a Thursday.EXPONENTIAL APOCALYPSE is the tender, heart-stirring tale of crappy jobs, a slacker cult, an alcoholic Aztec god, reconstituted world leaders, werewolves, robots, and the shenanigans of multiple persons living after the twentieth-aught end of the world. Fast-paced, frenetic, funny, and frequently fond of other f-words, EXPONENTIAL APOCALYPSE is the only book that will have you looking forward to the end of the world.

From beginning to end, this book was unpredictable and amusing. Even though I'd read the 4th book in the series first, and therefore I knew which characters would survive, I also knew that there are no guarantees when reading one of Eirik Gumeny's books. Yes, this is only the 2nd book of his that I've read and I've managed to figure that out. I was so effusively enthusiastic in my review of Revenge-aroni, I'm guessing that's why Eirik wanted me to read the rest of the series - hoping for more good reviews. Just to be clear, even though I received these books for free, that has (and will have) no influence over my opinion of them. One of the sentences I highlighted from the text because it made me chuckle is this one:She searched for any signs of civilization, any signs of life, but instead, found only her sanity lowering a rusty razorblade to its wrists, weeping and inconsolable, desperate for some kind of a release from the incomprehensible, never-ending void that lay before it.If I ever wrote a sentence that good, I'd probably have to email it to everyone I know just to brag, and then I would consider my writing career complete. Because, how could I possibly top that? Well, perhaps with this one:The Horseman weren't actually supposed to be capable of anger, but, due to a misplaced one in the Horsemen's coding, they were able to work themselves into the frothing rage of an old-money douchebag with an overdeveloped sense of entitlement forced to wait in a line of perfectly reasonable length.
