Is this what's waiting for you? June 12, 2030, started out like any other day in memory---and at that time, recollections were long. Since cancer had been healed fifteen years before, America's society was aging quickly. That sounds like very good news, but consider this: millions of seniors, with a huge natural predator selected off, were sucking dried benefits and resources that were never meant to hold them to their eighties and beyond. Young people around the country simmered with resentment toward "the olds" and anger at the treadmill machine they could never get off of just to maintain their parents' entitlement programs. But on that June 12th, everything changed: a massive earthquake devastated Los Angeles, and the government, always teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, was struggling to reply. The fallout from the earthquake sets in movement a sweeping novel of ideas that pits nationwide hope for the near future against assurances from the past and it is peopled by a memorable cast of refugees and billionaires, presidents and revolutionaries, all struggling to find their way. In 2030, the author's all-too-believable imagining of where today's difficulties could lead us tomorrow makes for gripping and thought-provoking listening.
