Description: Petrus van Stijn's world is besieged by two prime engines of destruction: massive geomagnetic storms caused by unprecedented solar storms - protracted coronal mass ejections (CME) and climate change wreaking unprecedented but predictable collapse of the Antarctic ice shelves. Petrus has other problems to contend with like surviving on a floating archipelago of ice and then walking 2200 kilometers through a post - Apocalyptic world. At the same time Petrus will discover something of a true social and biological paradise. Herein lies the paradox of a world where one species - ours - is facing extinction while others - many genetically re - engineered - are enjoying a biodiversity renaissance. With a Foreword by William Shatner this provocative lyrical deeply philosophical work of fiction explores the ethical limits of science and technology and the future of all life on earth.
