Aprašymas

Mungus ate the end of the world. It tasted like chicken.

When Claire Pemberton's cat consumes a cosmic artifact that was supposed to be her thesis paperweight, she expects some digestive complications. She does not expect fish showers over London, traffic lights speaking ancient Sumerian, or a government committee determined to take her cat away for "containment."

Now Claire-an anxiety-ridden graduate student whose entire field nobody takes seriously-must navigate emergency bureaucracy, face down hostile treasury officials, and prove that love isn't a weakness in cosmic entity management. It's the only thing that works.

Her allies include a demon named Harold who considers paperwork a form of devotion, a government agent whose cat is learning to purr at pipes, and a professor who just discovered his thirty years of theoretical research are terrifyingly real. Her opposition includes a man who views kindness as a budget line item to be eliminated.

The committee votes. The containment order stands. And Mungus walks into a cage to protect the person he loves.

But Claire isn't done fighting.

The Cat Who Ate The End Of The World is a cozy fantasy novella about trust, bureaucratic absurdity, and the lengths we'll go to protect the ones who matter. It features:

• A cosmic cat who thinks in italics about "food lady"
• A demon with an enthusiasm for proper documentation
• Fish showers, prophetic hamsters, and a missing Tuesday
• Found family forged through crisis
• The question of whether love is a sufficient basis for managing existential threats (it is)

Standalone novella. No cliffhangers. Contains one (1) deeply objectionable can of diet tuna.
