LiamCostas Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 just finished reading this about half an hour ago and have been googling the subject 'peak oil' as the author suggested I do. I'm left feeling stunned and very...very unsettled by the disturbing nature of the book and all the things I've been reading on the net since. This book reads like a cross between a George Romero film and a beginners guide to Peak Oil. it's basically an end-of-the-world thriller, the basic premise being how quickly things would fall apart if oil stopped flowing tomorrow. Utterly thrilling (well terrifying actually) and very informative. I'd certainly reccomend it for those people who've never heard of PO and need a real kick in the pants to get up to speed on the issue of energy security/PO. But I'm keen to find out from people who've been living with PO awareness for a while....is it really as bad or as imminant as the author of Last Light suggests it might be?
