A thoughtful, witty and bizarre book.
I love the non-linear, creative writing style and amazing premise.
The contrast between knowing that all the characters in the book will die (along with all humanity as we know it) and the use of the * to show who's next was fantastic.
I can't help but agree that our Big Brains are both a gift and a burden - fingers crossed humanity can realise that we aren't above the natural order before it's too late!
