Synopsis"The first satisfying end-of-the-world novel in years . . . an ultimate one . . . massively entertaining."-- Cleveland Plain-Dealer The gigantic comet had slammed into Earth, forging earthquakes a thousand times too powerful to measure on the Richter scale, tidal waves thousands of feet high. Cities were turned into oceans; oceans turned into steam. It was the beginning of a new Ice Age and the end of civilization. But for the terrified men and women chance had saved, it was also the dawn of a new struggle for survival--a struggle more dangerous and challenging than any they had ever known. . . . "Take your earthquakes, waterlogged condominiums, swarms of bugs, colliding airplanes and flaming what-nots, wrap them up and they wouldn't match one page of Lucifer's Hammer for sweaty-palmed suspense."-- Chicago Daily News

As i recall, a very good story read years ago. About time for a re-read.
Good story. I read the book years ago & remember it was great but i've forgotten a lot. After watching well enjoyed movie "The Postman" w/ Kevin Costner i seemed to remember that the postman played an important part in this story of holding things together. Time to read this one again.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Read it 15 times B4. Read 4K+ books in my life. It's my favorite.
It was a resonably priced trilogy. I live quite a ways from a bookstore. Could probably get it cheaper there but E-bay saves me a lot of travel time.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
