Everyone’s heard of Nostradamus. No one’s heard of Philibert Montmorency. One was a legend. The other, not so much....

A newly discovered Nostradamus prophecy has taken the internet by storm thanks to "The Oblivion Doctrine", a group of online conspiracy theorists. Apparently the end is nigh. And in case anyone’s interested, nigh is definitely a Tuesday.

Doctor Ally Oldfield, professor of Medieval Languages, is summoned to Lyon for a second opinion. She’s not happy about it. But then again she’s rarely happy about anything. She’s got a coffee deficiency, a low tolerance towards almost everybody, and nothing good to say about Nostradamus whatsoever. And in her expert opinion, although the prophecy is over 500 years old, it’s definitely not by Nostradamus. So if he didn't write it, who did?

Helped by Gabriel Janvier, the second-worst "prepper" of all time, and Mr. Palomer, a mysterious old philanthropist, Oldfield must scour history to discover the truth before the prophecy comes true or the Oblivion Doctrine’s fake news destroys civilization anyway.

In the search for truth, only history can save the future.

The End of the World Is Nigh is the first book in the Dr. Ally Oldfield series.

If you love books about con men, conspiracies, Renaissance history, massive agitated boar, exploding beds, marmalade, and historical satire then this is the book for you. Okay, you've never listened to a book like that before...here's your chance, get into the laughter today!

From the author of How to Survive the Afterlife series.

I thought the hopping between time periods would be confusing but I found the story easy to follow. The story is very clever and slowly pulls you in deeper and deeper. At the end, I couldn't put it down as two separate but interconnected climaxes in two different time periods came to a head. An excellent story, one I highly recommend.

funny, intriguing, and addicting

I LOVED everything about this book, even the prologue. It's very well written. It's hilarious but also had the ability to make me feel as if I listened to something profound as well.

First of all: "This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review."

Now that that's out of the way, I cannot over-emphasize how much I liked this book! One of the best I've read in a long time. I had to keep reminding myself that I was reading Terry Pratchett, or Neil Gaiman, or Joe Abercrombie.

The characters were all engaging, the setting was very realistic (the medieval chapters being actually based in a real historical setting) and the plot was fantastic. It was plausible without being predictable. And so funny! More than once I found myself actually laughing out loud.

I also can't say enough about the narrator of this audiobook. Fantastic pacing, terrific voices for the different characters, and an obvious knowledge inside and out of the material.

If you enjoy fantasy, conspiracy theories, or Nostradamus, definitely give this one a go!

Fun, whimsical, and super-entertaining!

Although this tale starts off a bit slow, it eventually grabs hold of you to the point where you cannot stop listening.

Fan'bloody'tastic is how l describe this audiobook. It was so good l purchased the ebook for the quotes. Moyle has written a historical fiction story with amazing analogies, which are what makes the book so good. If you want a good laugh give this book a listen. Drawing on real and created people, Tony has created a plausible story of the end of the world, especially in light of 2020...... Did l mention, its really funny so if you like British humour, this is for you.

Fantastic
