Terminus by Peter Clines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Go big or go home!
Out of all these Threshold books, I still think 14 was the most fun, but between all the scenes that pry open our world to gigantic lovecraftian gods and send us all, gibbering, to our doom, they're all pretty fun.
Think Lovecraft with a lighter tone, a can-do attitude even when it is, honestly, hopeless.
But as with most things, it's the journey that means the most.
In this one, the actual end of the world is merely a feature. We get a good look into the heads of the evil cultists, some fun SFnal tech, a bit of creepy time-travel and alternate universe stuff, and Somalian piracy. Everything a growing boy needs.
Definitely a good choice for a SFnal Spooktober. :)
