Histoire
An excellent student from a poor, traditional family in Seoul, the narrator has absorbed the same message her whole life: Only a boy can provide the family with dignity and wealth. Not her. Not her three sisters. Receiving approval only for uncomplaining sacrifice, she has resolved to take on her family’s troubles. She is a good girl. And she knows what good girls must do.

Histoire
In the North Sea, far from what remains of the coastline, a wind farm stretches for thousands of acres. The Boy, who is no longer really a boy, and the Old Man, whose age is unguessable, are charged with its maintenance. They carry out their never-ending work, scoured by wind and salt, as the waves roll, dragging strange shoals of flotsam through the turbine fields. Land is only a memory. So too is the Boy’s father, who worked on the turbines before him, and disappeared.

Histoire
Contains books 1-3 of The Forgotten. Sheriff Hayden Duke was born on the Pilgrim, and he expects to die on the Pilgrim, like his father, and his father before him. That's the way things are on a generation starship centuries from home. He's never questioned it. Access points to the ship's controls are sealed, the systems that guide her automated and out of reach. Until a malfunction forces his engineer wife to the edge of the habitable zone to inspect the damage. Until she contacts him, breathless, to tell him she found a body, and it doesn't belong to anyone on board.

Histoire
My name is Gary Rendell. I'm an astronaut. When they asked me as a kid what I wanted to be when I grew up, I said, "astronaut, please!" I dreamed astronaut, I worked astronaut, I studied astronaut. I got lucky; when a probe exploring the Oort Cloud found a strange alien rock and an international team of scientists was put together to go and look at it, I made the draw. I got even luckier. When disaster hit and our team was split up, scattered through the endless cold tunnels, I somehow survived. Now I'm lost, and alone, and scared, and there's something horrible in here. Lucky me.

Histoire
A huge alien object has entered the solar system and is now poised above the Earth. It has made no attempt to communicate. Out of time and options, NASA turns to its last living astronaut - Commander Sally Jansen, who must lead a new team in an old spacecraft to discover the object's purpose and hopefully make First Contact. But as the object reveals its secrets, what started as a mission of discovery becomes a struggle for survival - not just for Jansen's team, but for the whole of humanity.

Histoire
My name's Griz. I've never been to school, I've never had friends, in my whole life I've not met enough people to play a game of football. My parents told me how crowded the world used to be, before all the people went away, but we were never lonely on our remote island. We had each other, and our dogs. Then the thief came. He told stories of the deserted towns and cities beyond our horizons. I liked him - until I woke to find he had stolen my dog. So I chased him out into the ruins of the world.

Histoire
Gun violence, climate change and unemployment have ravaged the United States beyond recognition. Amidst the wreckage, an online retail giant named Cloud reigns supreme. Cloud brands itself not just as an online storefront but as a global saviour. Yet, beneath the sunny exterior lurks something far more sinister. Paxton never thought he’d be working security for the company that ruined his life, much less that he’d be moving into one of their sprawling live-work facilities. But compared to what’s left outside, perhaps Cloud isn’t so bad.

Histoire
The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, Shadrapar, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls. Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a museum, an asylum, a prison on a world that is ever more alien to humanity. Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is Stefan Advani: rebel, outlaw, survivor. This is his testament, an account of the journey that took him into the blazing desolation of the western deserts and into the labyrinths and caverns of the underworld.
Description
Sleet in Mississippi? In March? A crazy ice storm lays waste to the South in a #1 New York Times bestselling author’s invigorating, touching story of one slippery night, an open bar, and total abandon.
For three strangers whose paths will cross, the storm hasn’t even reached its peak. Two of them are the kind of climate scientists no one ever listens to in disaster movies. The third, against even icier opposition, has just moved to the Magnolia State to come out. Soon they’ll all be pushed closer to the edge, where the bracing winds of cataclysmic change can be so wildly liberating.
Jess Walter’s The Way the World Ends is part of Warmer, a collection of seven visions of a conceivable tomorrow by today’s most thought-provoking authors. Alarming, inventive, intimate, and frightening, each story can be read, or listened to, in a single breathtaking sitting.

Excuse for Political Rambling
There is no story. This is just an excuse for political rambling about climate change, gay rights, gun laws, drugs, sex, the President, racism. Even where you agree with his politics, you'll just want the book to end.

Boring.
Boring. The juxtaposition of sex and orgies with climate change and gay rights isn’t really compelling.

Ridiculous political claptrap
Could not get past page 20, overly political and that is a shame. Character development was just getting underway, and this author can't help themself with unnecessary overused political jargon. completely unnecessary.

Unexpected, entertaining take on climate change
Jess Walter expertly crafted intriguing characters who intersect with each other under the umbrella of climate change.
I especially enjoyed each character's individual take on the warming planet, addressing the imminent changes with concern and a dash of humor.

More Wes Anderson Than Michael Bay
I really wanted to like this story, I love the premise and there were parts of it that I did enjoy but if I look at the book as a whole, I wasn’t a huge fan of it. I think the reasoning behind it is because it felt like it jumped around too much and utilized the paralyzing jumps that some short stories cling to. It’s possible to write a short story without leaving out details or at least with explaining what happened – but in The Way The World Ends it felt like Walter just “jumped” ahead a few too many times without really explaining what was going on.
The story itself was interesting, I thought it was going to be more about the end of the world, but it was about the time before the end of the world (which can also be fascinating). It told the stories of a few different characters and each one was interesting and unique. I’m a little bummed because even now, re-reading the synopsis, I’m confused as to what book that’s describing. It was so much less about the world ending and so much more about the human condition. If it had mentioned that a bit more I probably wouldn’t have had as much of a problem with it – but since it made it sound like it was going to be a short “day after tomorrow”-like story – I was expecting more Michael Bay and less Wes Anderson (I love them both but go into their films with completely different mindsets.
Dan John Miller does a good job narrating this and really helped me get through the book when I was struggling. I can’t tell if there was one mistake or not in the middle of the book (there was a repeated line), but the way the book was written – it could have been there. If I can remember the line, I’ll look it up and change my review to reflect that.

Very Well Written and Great Performance
Both the writer and the narrator did a bang-up job. I found the story and performance totally absorbing. The pacing was good and the narrator gave each character his or her own voice.
