How It Ends
Eddie Levitt lives in a world of fear where he sits paralyzed and having to live out his same old, boring and ordinary life. Coming home from his mundane desk job stamping pages all day, talking a bit with his nihilistic cat and dreaming of becoming the success he’ll never be, Eddie Levitt is every one of us. His life couldn’t be any more wretched and mediocre, until one day his neighbor points out that his hobby science fiction stories have already been published. He soon meets a girl from his nightmares, goes on a hunt for a time traveling thief and, seeking to find the ultimate meaning to everything, ends up on a murderous rampage. This part morbid comedy and part psychological thriller will have you on the edge of your seat, turning every page until you see finally how it ends is really how it all begins.

This is an awesome book! It has been a while since I`ve read a book as interesting, absorbing and thrilling as "How it ends". It is an exciting journey through the mind/subconscious of the main Character Eddie Levitt. "How it Ends" reflects many problems/issues of our life and manhood such as seeking the meaning of everything, morbidity, psychological weakness and so on and so forth. And, on top of all this, even TIME TRAVEL is in it. Loved it!

This is that Philip K. Dick mixed with Kurt Vonnegut from that underground author that you've always wanted to read. A surreal and cynical comedy that will have you jumping in and out of reality. Shawn Basey really knows how to grab your attention in the opening chapter, and then he keeps it for the rest of the book. Highly recommend for anybody looking for something that twists your mind a different way.

I am giving this one star because I gave up on it. It was too monotonous; the protagonist just wallows in his negativity .. Over and over and over. I see others have given it higher ratings so I will give the book 20 more pages. And if it improves, I will change my review.
