Funny you should mention that, Ea. When I was a teenager, I read over and over *Earth Abides*. Thought it was terrific ('keen' was the in-word for good in the UK at the time). When I mentioned here at MR that I'd love to read it again to see if it had the same impact, one of our pals sent me an ebook copy. Stayed awake all night to read it. Coming up half a century after the first time, it still gripped me from start to finish. Just so perfectly rounded and satisfying. Although it broke new ground in 1949, *Earth Abides* must be one of the most underrated SF pieces of all time. Cheers. Neil
