Erasing All The People In Close Proximity To a Particular Book.

[mongers]

Inspired by Raz's genocide threat, I propose this question, you have to choose a particular book title, one that's been reprinted at least three times, and everyone within 10 feet of a copy of the title at the specified moment, gets erased from the face of the earth, so which book is it ?


At the moment I'm leaning towards the DaVinci code, but haven't pushed the button on it, as I know it would kill a lot of old dears/volunteers in thrift/charity shops.

Oh and one acception, anyone who works in a bookshop gets automatic immunity form the effect.

Think of it as the reverse of book burning, books that burn people.

Twilight.  Twilight, Twilight, Twilight.  Did I mention Twilight?  Twilight.

That might have been topical like 9 years ago.

Any Dawkins book.

DaVinci Code was a perfectly serviceable paperback thriller.  Twilight is tween romance, and is pretty standard for the genre.

Please try and come up with something slightly more evil - perhaps Mein Kampf of Mao's Little Red Book.

With Twilight, we'd get the added bonus of nailing anyone with a copy of 50 Shades of Grey for free.  It's standard for the genre, but the readership it got is anything but.

Or Atlas Shrugged.

Hmm, that could be an excellent candidate, too.  Problem is, it wouldn't get the morons who've seen the movie but not read the book.

HEY IT WAS ON NETFLIX.

Just proposed this to my mom, and she had a good answer: Dianetics.

Typical Mongers bait and switch.

Don't anybody dare say the Koran.  They keep a copy in courtrooms.

Koran.

There. Lawyers vaporized.

[Habbaku]

The Avesta, just to piss off Spellus.

Silly.  I'd bet $100 that most copies of Hitler's or Mao's works are owned by people with a mere historical interest in the Third Reich or PRC.
