The New Revolution

Special price! - only available through www.bookguild.co.uk Britain in the 2020s. A neo-fascist government is in power and thousands of immigrants are being brutally ‘repatriated’. Global warming has accelerated and the country basks in a near-permanent heatwave. Across the globe, bush fires blaze and low-lying land is fast being swallowed up by rising sea levels. No one, though, seems to care, but that’s because no one knows. Media censorship has ensured that the British people live in a state of perpetual blissful ignorance. Sam Webster, Professor of Meteorology at the University of York, seems like an ordinary middle-aged academic with an obsession for the weather. More often than not he can be found down by the River Ouse, measuring the trickle of water that now flows under York’s historic bridges. Sam, though, has a secret mission – one, he hopes, that might just save the planet and bring about environmental change – the new revolution … In this fast-paced, thought-provoking thriller, Fredwyn Haynes explores a terrifying future in which ecological catastrophe and political dystopia go hand in hand and in so doing turns a mirror on our own fragile society.
