5.0 out of 5 stars
american book of the dead by Stephan Billias: Hip and Apocolyptic, May 23, 2008
This review is from: American Book of the Dead (Paperback)
This book is the best american vision of the end of the world. It encourages the reader to let go of fear and embrace the bomb. I really like the name of chapter II: Raising the bonsai sequoia. The book involves a man who is very, very smart, who is a great succsess in the early, pre PC computer industry. His great intellegence leads him to the conclusion that WE ARE DOOMED. So, he becomes an alcoholic in the gutter for the next number of years, until the end is nigh. This is just in the first chapter. End of the world bhodisatvas also play a large part. I highly recomend this book to anyone who wants their great great grandchildren to survive and thrive here on planet earth. This ironicaly humorous look at the end of the world will make you laugh until you want to cry. This is one of my ten favorite book ever.

One Man's Quest for Sanity and Enlightenment, December 5, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: American Book of the Dead (Paperback)
This really is a pretty incredible tale that runs all around the United States and runs us into a man only known as _________ ________, not to mention various mystical entities. A quest to try to make sense of it all. A good read and a fun book!
