\u201cThis debut novel is utter insanity, and it definitely owes some inspiration to Douglas Adams, albeit with more \u2018f-bombs\u2019 and hookers than I recall seeing in the Hitchhiker\u2019s Guide. It\u2019s a fun read that at times comes up with some fantastic bona fide sci-fi settings and ideas, in spite of its own absurdity. After reading Exponential Apocalypse<\/em>, I\u2019m convinced that Eirik Gumeny either is a genius or is absolutely as mad as his brain-addled version of Quetzalcoatl. I\u2019m guessing it\u2019s the former, and I\u2019ll definitely be looking forward to his next work, if he doesn\u2019t end the world once and for all first.\u201d

\u201cThe social satire brings to mind Vonnegut, T. C. Boyle and the Marx Brothers, not to mention the Three Stooges. \u2026 This book is recommended for anyone who takes their apocalypses and zombies seriously, and for anyone who doesn\u2019t.\u201d

“Exponential Apocalypse<\/em> is crass, ludicrous, and occasionally nonsensical.
\nIt’s also hilarious and entertaining.”
\n– Nathaniel Katz, The Hat Rack<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cEirik Gumeny writes with a sharp sarcasm and wit that I love. The entire book is absurd to the point of being profound.\u201d

“I really enjoy a pseudo-intellectual, practically blasphemous laugh from time to time.”

\u201cFast, weird, and funny as hell.\u201d

There had been twenty-two apocalypses to date. There were now four distinct variations of humanity roaming the earth \u2013 six, if you counted the undead. <\/p>\n

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. <\/p>\n

The last apocalypse wasn’t even considered a cataclysm by most major governments. <\/p>\n

It was just a Thursday.<\/p>\n

Exponential Apocalypse<\/i> 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<\/i> is the only book that will have you looking forward to the end of the world.<\/p>\n

Exponential Apocalypse<\/em> is currently available for sale from Amazon<\/a>, Barnes & Noble.com, and many other fine internet retailers. You can also snag a digital copy for your Kindle here<\/a> if that\u2019s your thing, or a DRM-free ePub<\/a> or .pdf here<\/a>. Be the envy of all the neighbor kids!<\/p>\n
