About This Book
This is the story of an adventure told through the eyes of Michael D'Arcy and his Uncle John Ennis, two different generations, separated by half a century. A chronicle of collapse, the story of our headlong gallop towards disaster, of the destruction being waged by shortsighted or corrupt politicians, unscrupulous men and their businesses, on our environment, our planet, our home, our only home, in this dark, silent, hostile universe.Doesn't concern me, did I hear you say?Well you're wrong there, you're part of it, part of a wild race to apocalypse. Yes, look around you, as waves of extreme weather sweep over us, as new diseases threaten us, as the shadow of war and famine appears to the East, and as a financial crisis of huge proportions threatens the breakdown of our institutions and political systems.This story, is different. Why? Because it is a warning. The future of our natural world depends on its outcome, it's the story of greed, finance, capital and geopolitics, the story of our blindness, and yes we are all part of it, part of that wild race.
