About this listen

Welcome to the future, Patrick. It’s worse than you imagined.

At 12 years old, Patrick Stoodle already feels like a stranger in his own world. But when a birthday surprise upends everything he thought he knew, he’s forced to question not just his family, but time, truth, and reality itself.

Thrust into a future he might not survive in a time machine he doesn’t understand, Patrick finds himself caught between conflicting stories, identities, and belief systems. With society crumbling around him and the adults in his life fractured by secrets, he begins to ask: Who can I trust? And how do you grow up when the Earth is dying?

Can Patrick escape the apocalypse before it's too late?

The Joke at the End of the World is a darkly funny, emotionally charged coming-of-age YA science fiction novel about belief, deception, and the search for meaning in a collapsing world. With echoes of Slaughterhouse-Five and Huckleberry Finn, it’s a mind-bending ride through time, identity, and the lies we tell ourselves to sleep at night.

Listen to The Joke at the End of the World today and laugh in the face of doom!
