Reviews

Completely delightful...Neither utopian nor dystopian, it portrays life in SoCal in a future woven from our successes (Green New Deal!), failures (climate chaos anyway), and unresolved conflicts (old MAGA dudes). I loved it. * Rebecca Solnit * This chronicle of mutual aid is politically perceptive, scientifically sound, and extraordinarily hopeful even amidst the smoke. Forget the Silicon Valley bros – these are the California techsters we need rebuilding our world, one solar panel and prefab insulated wall at a time. * Bill McKibben * This book looks like our future and feels like our present — it’s an unforgettable vision of what could be. Even a partly good future will require wicked political battles and steadfast solidarity among those fighting for a better world, and here I lived it along with Brooks, Ana Lucía, Phuong, and their comrades in the struggle. Along with the rush of adrenaline I felt a solid surge of hope. May it go like this. -- Kim Stanley Robinson Simultaneously hopeful and nihilistic… [A] horrifyingly plausible vision of the route to the future * SciFi Now * The always-excellent Doctorow’s new novel is set a generation from now, when climate change is a fact of life…as ever, Doctorow takes an intriguing approach * New Scientist *
