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.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

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."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Any recommendations for spinning of the Arthurian legends? I'm in the mood to maybe pick up a couple beyond Mallory and White.

Mists of Avalon? The Hollow Hills/The Crystal Cave?
