8-year-old pens thrilling apocalyptic novels about farts

Can't wait for the movies to come out.

Nothing conjures images of the apocalypse like a strong fart. This 8-year-old author understands that.

A pair of fine, fine book covers were posted to Imgur on Friday. The volumes? The Fart that Killed Everyone and its companion, The Fart that Killed Everyone 2.

The author? The next Crichton, we assume. Except, allegedly, this author is 8 years old.

Still, we have a few questions before the inevitable book club discussion. Is the fart sentient? Does it have a name? If the first great fart killed everyone, how is there a sequel?

In any event, can't wait for the movies to come out.
