Om den här e-boken
No oxygen, no life: when the air thins in this near-future thriller, a race against time to find the solution begins: a landmark in the field of eco-fiction (Washington Post)
MANKIND IS KILLING THE AIR WE BREATHE.
Selected as one of Goodread's Best Ecological Horror novels
Scientists have been warning for decades that we are poisoning the Earth. Now their prophecy is coming true. The oceans have become polluted, destroying a crucial link in the planet's life-support system.
Instead of joining in friendship to meet this deadly future, corrupt superpowers are plotting to secure the last remaining clean air for the privileged few.
This is the terrifying 21st-century prophecy of what we are doing to our home in space.
Once it was just a scary bedtime story. Now it has become horrifyingly real.
TIME IS SHORT. THE AIR IS RUNNING OUT.
