Armageddon has never been so uproarious in Robert Rankin's "Armageddon: The Musical." A madcap tale that pits Elvis Presley, Barry the Time Sprout, and an assortment of oddball characters against the impending doom of the world, it takes the end-times narrative and throws it into a blender with British humour and sci-fi madness.
The story unfolds in a future Earth where a mega-corporation is plotting to bring about the apocalypse for profit. Elvis, reincarnated as a messiah figure, must thwart the plans with a ragtag crew of eccentrics. It's a brilliantly nonsensical escapade through time and space that would make a splendid addition to any SFcrowsnest reading list, especially for those who like their apocalypses with a side of hilarity.
