THE LAST GENERATION

REVIEWS OF THE LAST GENERATION

"Will the end of times have Advertising? Curiously strong ads aren't the only thing Steffan Postaer writes. The man who brought Altoids and its body builders and she-devils to the fore is at it again!"

Julie A. Johnson, AdAges, adAge Magazine

"I love the spiritual, religious/anti-religious theme of this book. It’s a very internal reading. The characters are realistic and reading most of their stories I kept thinking, 'Yeah, that’s probably what I would be doing'."

Tony DuShane, Literary Love, February 2004

"This dark tale follows several members of the Last as they personify the worldwide struggle to deal with Embryo Fatality Syndrome.... By focusing on individuals rather than the big picture, Postaer makes this a very readable novel despite the grim subject matter. The one drawback of this frighteningly believable look at the near future is that the reader may be left with more questions than answers, wanting to know more about the world's reaction to its own end."

Jen Talley Exum, Romantic Times Magazine

"About 30 pages in you realize The Last Generation isn't your typical end of days story. For one thing, there's no preaching. And maybe that's what makes it so cool."

Mark Faulkner, Chicago, IL

"In most cases the end of the world would be considered bad news. This isn't like most cases."

Mike Coffin, Austin, TX

"Vivid prose that describes what the end of the world could actually be like. Life ends almost as slowly and undramatically as it began."

Rebecca Clarkson, Chicago, IL

"Written with the pace and pulse of a movie, Last Generation comes to life with unexpected twists, deep human connections and a moral challenge for us all. Steffan Postaer proves there is a new generation of writers changing the novel for the better."

John Coveny, Los Angeles, CA

"Never before has the mirror been turned so starkly upon the beating heart, making each of us ask the most compelling questions of life and death. Truly a must read."

Michael Minnis, Austin, TX

"I loved your book! ...It feels like Edgar Allan Poe’s little brother wrote it."

Vikki Anderson, Chicago, IL

"It is a great premise and it was entertaining to read. The author created a different world with a new set of rules by making a relatively simple change (in concept) to the world we live in."

Mark Cooper, Minneapolis, MN

"The fact that I enjoyed and appreciated the story as much as I did, in light of a resolution that normally leaves me flat and wanting, is an indication, to me, of just how well written it was! Your book left me feeling far more fulfilled than I dared hope..."

Aldis P. Weible, Chicago, IL
