A unique and terrifying future seen through the eyes of just some average guy. Jimmy is your average dude who had friends do impressive things. By being on the fringes of greatness he manages to survive a mass extinction. The story is fun and dark in all the right ways, told in a way that keeps you glued to the pages.
