Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

And a pretty good review of Discount Armageddon.

The mice seem to be universally popular. As long as they aren't real and living with you, I guess.

I think I saw one reviewer who said they were annoying. HEATHEN.

OK, I like Discount Armageddon, and love the mice (#hail), but what is the title supposed to mean?

I think she said it was because it was like Armageddon-lite, like it wasn't really the end of the world, but something less catastrophic. I'll see if I can find the IM when I go home. A later book is called Half-Off Ragnarok, so the real answer is probably just...it's a fun title.

OK, as long as I am not missing out on secret significance.

It's a HUGE WORLD-SHAKING APOCALYPSE...on a shoe-string budget, with a cocktail waitress and a trainee, trying to prevent it. So it's basically the Costco version of doom.

That makes perfect sense, but I would never have figured it out.
