Tragic family drama disguised in apocalyptic genre
I spent at least three quarters of this book getting irritated by the protagonist's whiny outlook, however, I was sympathetic by the end when he faces his own demons and realisation.

It's like a drama wrapped in an end of the world scenario, so I was relieved that it avoided any of the ridiculous zombie / outbreak type of plot. It was mostly realistic, analysing how people react differently to extreme situations, apart from the fact a man with zero running skills could manage to run 450 miles in total let alone 20 miles within the first day.

And there were some great characters including old man Australian Harvey and female soldier Grimes, who blasted any stereotypes out of the water.

A classic
I can remember hearing a lot of hype about this game. This along with Wolfstein created the first person shooter games. So when it came to the Megadrive 32X it was a must have game. The graphics were pretty good for time if the environments were a little plain and chunky. The game moved fast though, and the sound effects of blasting some zombies or demons with your shotgun were great. It was a simple game of getting through a level to the exit while blasting baddies along the way with alsorts of weapons. Yet it was just so much fun, you could play for hours. A cult classic game!

The presentation
The premise
Da Vinci Code remains his best work, but I'd place this above his others.
This is a good solid thriller, with great use of personal moments and fears. This doesn't have the sheer puzzling out of symbols that Da Vinci Code had. But it's much better than Angels and demons. Spain is an interesting location, and the bilbao museum is a great setting to start the chase in. Some of his descriptions of the settings go on and on, which can be great if you've never seen them, or visited personally. But they also tend to drag the book a bit. Still, it's worth reading, and makes a good solid audio book which is how I read it... on my commute

Great for a dark sense of humour. (0 more)
A good mix of both Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaimam
This story is about a demon and an angel trying to find the anti-christ and stop the apocalypse. It has a very similar style to all of Terry Pratchett's books. It is nice to read something written by him that isn't set in the discworld (no matter how much I love them).
It is full of the two authors dark humour and being set in England means that there are loads of little bits that are recognisable.
Some of my favourite parts are when they discribe certain aspects of the country that have been designed by demons to torture humans (like the M25!)
Thoroughly enjoyed this read.
