The End of Science Fiction has a satisfying and tightly knit plot, and the fast prose style adds a strong sense of drama. Being a disaster novel, it could have easily slipped into melodrama, but Smith keeps the story on an even keel which makes it all the more believable. Long after you¹ve finished reading, you can¹t help but wonder how you would react, if faced with the same frightening news.'
