Story
In Eve's media-ruled world, turning 18 means you are finally allowed to choose which channel you want to watch, and by doing so, to decide what kind of world you inhabit: a heartwarming one in which neighbors help each other out like her mother, a world on the brink of the end-times like her father, a bohemian theme park like her brother, or something else. There are hundreds of channels, with more being added every day. Her birthday is next week, and she's never felt more confused or alone.

Story
Certainly not the twins at the heart of the matter of all things Apocalypse, Calvin and Trent, who soon must decide what—or rather whom—they’re willing to sacrifice in order to delay your world’s dying gasps. Definitely not the high school principal, Gary Mustafa, whose hyperfixation on balloons will leave your mind only loosely tethered to your head. Then there’s Love and Yew, the former government hacker and ex-reality TV star, the latter a psychedelic therapist who thinks she’s better than you. The less said about these two women, the better.
