What would you do if one day you turned on your TV and found out that doomsday had arrived? Who would you talk to about this terrifying news, and what would you say? That's what happens in the apocalyptic novel, The Day The World Ended. During an experiment to develop a new form of energy, two scientists accidentally create a black hole that starts to consume Earth and everything on it. Coinciding with the creation of a black hole is the discovery of a new Earth-like planet located five light-years from Earth. In an effort to save humanity, several spaceships, capable of traveling at near the speed of light, take thousands of colonists to the new world. Will they survive the journey, and if they do, will the same ideological issues that have plagued mankind for eons on Earth wind up being an issue on the new planet?
