After The Blue

by Russel Like

After the Blue is Russel Like's charming, American answer to Douglas Adams's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy--straightforwardly funny science fiction with a healthy dose of social satire. The premise is that goofy aliens have destroyed almost everyone on Earth... accidentally. A century later, they're contrite and trying to rebuild human society based on the information they gather from books, movies, brochures, and ... shudder ... old television shows. Problem is, the handful of survivors living in Jamesburg, New Jersey, may not be ready for the Gruumsbaggian idea of how things were.

Imagine if Douglas Adams had written "The Stand".
