The Gaia Uprising

The Gaia Uprising A Novel by J. West Hardin The world is collapsing. At first it is thought that the technological affront of a government bent on ending the global economy is the cause. A cynical bureaucracy and an ancient cabal of wealthy families that have ruled the global economy for millennia plan to initiate a second 11,500 year cycle of dominance. Incredibly the accelerated poisoning of the biosphere and increasing destruction of Earth's ecogeosphere awakens a sentient Gaia who has lain in slumber since the formation of the universe. The newly emergent sentience begins a one thousand year experiment that will determine the fate of mankind. Gabriel Rex, a hero who Gaia raises up from a life in bondage leads the people of Earth to a new beginning in paradise.
