Humanity’s forecast? Looking grim. Nuclear war. Climate change. Alien space fungus. The ways in which the universe could kill us are myriad. While some sci-fi authors claim that a hopecore future could still be in store, other cynical thinkers beg to differ. In these sci-fi books, humanity fails to achieve its lofty ambitions, and gutters out entirely. Whether it’s with a bang or with a whimper, one thing’s for sure: we’re doomed. These are 10 sci-fi books where humanity doesn’t survive, to remind you that as bad as things seem currently, it could always be worse.
Children of Time
(Orbit)Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Children of Time is set long after the Earth died out. In order to assure its continued survival, the last remnants of humanity set about terraforming alien worlds in order to serve as new homes for the generations of tomorrow. When they showed up at one of these garden worlds, humanity was surprised to find a different civilization had already moved in. A group of human colonists discover that their potential paradise has been populated by spiders! And not sure regular spiders, uplifted spiders. After a human-made virus caused primates to die out and spiders to evolve consciousness on this faraway world, arachnids are now the dominate species. And they’re actually really nice! Far more compassionate than the humans of the future, who are attempting to take away their home. In this book, we’re the alien invaders, and after a one-sided struggle for survival, we’re assimilated entirely.
