Review of 12 by Jeffrey Marcus Oshins
4 stars

If you’re looking for the standard doom-and-gloom world-ending catatrosphic calendar-end story—look somewhere else, this is not it. The subtitle is: “A Novel About the End of the Mayan Calendar” and that is what it is. If the Mayan Calendar ends at 12-21-12, why does it do so? According to this novel, it’s due to the ending of the Age of Man, which will be accomplished by a Mayan god through a Great Flood. But—what if that potential destructor does not wish to remove humanity from this planet? If he changes his mind, the result might be what “12” purports. Try it out and see for yourself. It’s good to see a positive view of the Mayan perplexity, isn’t it?

I reviewed an e-book copy provided to me by the author in return for my fair and impartial review.
