The End of the World: a Hymn to the Destruction of the World

Who knows! I couldn't put it down after opening "The End of the World: Hymn to the Destruction of the World". I stayed up late to finish reading most of the book. When I closed the book, I was still immersed in the desolation and passion of the apocalyptic wasteland and couldn't extricate myself! This is definitely the best post-apocalyptic novel I have read in recent times, bar none! Unlike many clichéd apocalyptic novels, the author does not just pile on the exciting points of defeating monsters and upgrading. Instead, he uses delicate brushstrokes to outline the real picture of the world after the collapse: cracked earth, dried up rivers, and panic-stricken survivor camps. Every detail is full of a sense of substitution, as if you can see the ruins of the fall of civilization with your own eyes. The protagonist is not Long Aotian, who is born to cheat, but an ordinary person who loses everything in a disaster but still chooses to stick to the bottom line. He led his remaining partners to survive in a desperate situation. He not only had to fight against the attacks of mutated creatures, but also guarded against the unpredictability of people's hearts. Every decision he made was heart-wrenching, and every breakout was exciting to watch. The most poignant thing is the portrayal of "human nature" in the book. There is no absolute good or evil, only struggle and perseverance in desperate situations. Some people betray their companions in order to survive, and some sacrifice themselves to protect others. The descriptions of hope and despair, trust and betrayal make the whole story more profound. Especially the bond between the protagonist team, from the initial mutual suspicion to the later sharing of life and death, is not deliberately sensational, but it is touching in every way. The word "hymn" in the title of the book is wonderful. It praises not destruction, but the glory of humanity that remains immortal despite destruction. The rhythm of the plot is relaxed and relaxed, the description of the battle scenes is tense and exciting, and the foreshadowing is also in place. It makes people suddenly realize that many of the details in the previous chapters can be echoed later. If you like apocalyptic novels and want to read a story that has both passionate battles and a deep core, this book is definitely worth reading with your eyes closed! I have already started to update. I beg the author to update more. I really want to know if the protagonists can finally find hope of new life!
