To panic, to plan, to wonder and to hope, to laugh and to grieve. All in a story that goes to all the places you'd expect, and to many others you could never anticipate. For the people of the earth, this could be the end - or the beginning of a whole new world.From the Hugo and Locus Award-winning author John Scalzi, When the Moon Hits Your Eye is an entirely serious take on an entirely unserious subject.* * *Praise for When the Moon Hits Your Eye:'Very funny and occasionally moving, this is a welcome bit of comic relief' - The Guardian'Funny, emotional, thought-provoking and scary' - SFX Magazine'Riotously fun. This is an apocalypse like no other . . . an absolutely bonkers joy' - Fantasy Hive'Scalzi's ability to balance scathing satire with heartfelt optimism shines' - Publishers Weekly
