Chicxulub is a literary genre centered on planetary-scale rupture and its long-term reverberations: stories that treat cataclysm—literal asteroid impacts, sudden climate collapse, species-level extinction—or their metaphoric equivalents as the axis around which plot, mood, and meaning turn. Books in this category weave geological and deep-time perspectives with human-scale drama, combining elements of apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction, paleo- and eco-fiction, speculative science, and elegiac literary prose to examine loss, adaptation, and renewal across generations. Expect settings that range from scorched, fossil-strewn landscapes and submerged coastlines to laboratories, dig sites, and haunted archives; themes of hubris, survivorship, evolutionary change, and ethical reckoning; and tones that move between awe, grief, and grim hope. Chicxulub novels interrogate how civilizations read the scars of the Earth, how memory and myth form around extinction, and how the smallest changes can reorder life on a planetary scale.
