I hope civilization will last long enough for it to be published for all to enjoy and contemplate. - Paul R. Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb The writer's job description runs to three words: tell the truth. John Rember is a writer. He tells, unflinchingly, the truth about our looming civilizational collapse. He allows us no illusions, no evasions, no sentimentalities. Rember lives in central Idaho among survivalists who stock their bunkers with ammo and cheese. He has preferred a different form of preparation, storing his mind with logic, wisdom, humility, and compassion-provisions he offers his readers in prose of exemplary lucidity and force. - William Deresiewicz, author of Excellent Sheep: The Miseducation of the American Elite and the Way to a Meaningful Life Most books explaining why the world is about to end are not fun to read. They tend to earnest pretention, self-righteous diatribe. John Rember has written a book that is not only entertaining and fun to read, but it matters. His observations are original and surprising. He writes with a scalpel. Buy it, read it. You'll be a better person. - Tim Sandlin, author of Skipped Parts: A Novel and Honey Don't Author InformationJohn Rember is the author of Sudden Death, Over Time; Coyote in the Mountains and Other Stories; Cheerleaders from Gomorrah: Tales from the Lycra Archipelago; and Traplines: Coming Home to Sawtooth Valley.
