The writer's intelligence shines through, especially in his deep understanding of the media, politics, and the ‘prepper’ sensibility. Maybe most importantly, this book is incredibly entertaining. I read most of it in public at a cafe, and couldn't help laughing out loud. A lot.

Here's the set-up:
For nearly two decades, Jefferson Jones has wielded his widely
syndicated talk show as a bullhorn: the apocalypse is coming, brought
you to courtesy of the banksters, the Bilderbergs, the world’s nefarious
elite.
The second term of President Barry Soetoro—aka Barrack Hussein
Obama—ushers in a mysterious eclipse, followed by reports of demon
sightings and brutal decapitations. On November 7, 2012, his predictions
finally come to pass.
Jones covers the unfolding carnage, and the nation’s pundits cover
him. He relishes the attention, but is it too little too late?
Live from the Apocalypse is a dark, political satire set in the era
of hysterical pundits, absurd politicians, and conspiracy theories so
crazy they just might be true.
One Reviewer Notes:
Live from the Apocalypse is one of the best books I have read in the last five years. It's also one of the strangest, most surreal, and funniest novels I've *ever* read. Cruze knows the key to that crossroads where political satire meets the Kafkaesque. Within the very absurd lies some strain of the familiar....Read this book. I rank it with my favorite works of Poe, Calvino, and (Cruze's contemporary) the satirist Chris Bachelder. It is a marvelous accomplishment, both of the imagination and clear seeing.
