One of the problems of suggesting the imminent destruction of the world is that, 18 years after the book is published, it's rather hard to believe. The author's opening statement is "Somewhere, at this very moment, on planet Earth, the Antichrist is almost certainly alive - biding his time, awaiting his cue...." Well, the Antichrist is 18 years older now, and hasn't manifested himself (OK, you Democrats out there, bite your tongue!). It is refreshing and somewhat nostalgic to read about the enthusiasm for the mind-bending changes that happened in Eastern Europe in the late 80s.
