The book, of course, is The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking), by Katie Mack, and it’s a wonderful dive into the inner structures of the universe, as well as how it all might come crashing together/start blowing apart/vanishing/you get the drift.

This month, however, I’d like to talk about a book that deals with endings-more specifically, the end of everything-but does so with grace, charm, and wit. Hello everyone, and hopefully you’re all having a wonderful new year so far. The End of Everything (Astrophysically Speaking) Series: The Tales of Gorlen Vizenfirthe.Series: From the Lost Travelers’ Tour Guide.People of Colo(u)r Destroy Science Fiction!.The End of Everything is a wildly fun, surprisingly upbeat ride to the farthest reaches of all that we know. Amid stellar explosions and bouncing universes, Mack shows that even though we puny humans have no chance of changing how it all ends, we can at least begin to understand it. This captivating story of cosmic escapism examines a mesmerizing yet unfamiliar physics landscape while sharing the excitement a leading astrophysicist feels when thinking about the universe and our place in it. Our universe could collapse in upon itself, or rip itself apart, or even - in the next five minutes - succumb to an inescapable expanding bubble of doom. Guiding us through major concepts in quantum mechanics, cosmology, string theory and much more, she describes how small tweaks to our incomplete understanding of reality can result in starkly different futures. With lively wit and wry humour, astrophysicist Katie Mack takes us on a mind-bending tour through each of the cosmos' possible finales: the Big Crunch, Heat Death, Vacuum Decay, the Big Rip and the Bounce. But what happens at the end of the story?
