Author(s): Bill Direen

NZ Fiction

Bill Direen's third novel takes place in a world where the earth's resources are almost exhausted, the water supplies are contaminated and parts of the landmasses have imploded. A life and death struggle occurs between two irreconcilable forces; one in possession of the earth's remaining wealth and power, the other carrying the genetic key to the survival of mankind. Vibrant language and a fast-paced narrative define this Ballardesque journey through a post-apocalyptic world.
