			        		&quot;By taking us on a cautionary journey into a future planetary collapse where the term &#x201C;one per cent&#x201D; is redefined in a terrifying way, John Feffer forces us to look deeply at our own society&#x2019;s blindness to ecological apocalypse and greed. But the novel&#x2019;s enchantment goes beyond dystopia: the quest for salvation depends on a crusty female octogenarian who would make Wonder Woman salivate with envy.&quot; &#x2014;Ariel Dorfman &#xA0; &quot;A worthy sequel to the thought-provoking&#xA0;Splinterlands,&#xA0;Frostlands&#xA0;is triumphant and absorbing science fiction, full of ecological and societal warnings. It is a unique and imaginative look at a future Earth scarred by environmental neglect.... In a short space,&#xA0;Frostlands&#xA0;touches on a variety of intriguing subjects. The killer drones and network-hacking warfare of&#xA0;Frostlands&#xA0;aren&#x2019;t wild speculative fantasy of a remote future; Feffer is focused on the next fifty years or so, with an eye toward avoiding the mostly bleak landscape that&#xA0;Frostlands&#xA0;so vividly captures. Rachel and Arcadia represent the ability of humans to adapt and fight back against even self-inflicted environmental and societal wounds; their story is both edifying and entertaining.&quot;&#xA0; &#x2014;Foreword Reviews &#xA0; &quot;Devotees of near-future science fiction adventures will root for resolute and energetic Rachel on her quest to save Earth.&quot; &#x2014;Publishers Weekly &#xA0; &quot;This fast read picks up after the death of Julian, the protagonist of Splinterlands, and can be enjoyed as a stand-alone sequel to the first book in the series. Its sense of urgency inspires readers to keep going and a pale glimmer of hope at the end is welcome after the quick, harrowing ride.&quot; &#x2014;Library Journal &#xA0; Praise for&#xA0;Splinterlands: &#xA0; Feffer&#x2019;s confident recitation of world collapse is terrifyingly plausible, a short but encompassing look at world tragedy. &quot;&#x2014;Publishers Weekly, Starred Review&#x201C;Feffer&#x2019;s book is a wild ride through a bleak future, casting a harsh, thought-provoking light on that future&#x2019;s modern-day roots.&#x201D;&#x2014;Foreword Reviews&quot;Just as it&#x2019;s especially enjoyable to read science fiction written by real scientists, Feffer offers readers a uniquely well-researched and historically robust argument for why the world turns out the way that it does, which makes it all the more relevant&#x2014;and frightening. &quot;&#x2014;Washington City Paper&#xA0;&quot;Readers who enjoy dystopian stories that hold more than a light look at political structures and their downfall will more than appreciate the in-depth approach John Feffer takes in his novel.&quot;&#x2014;Midwest Book Review&quot;Splinterlands is a short and powerful dystopian novel, framed as an all-too-credible account of what might happen in our lifetimes.&quot;&#x2014;Climate and Capitalism&quot;John Feffer is our 21st-century Jack London, and, like the latter&apos;s Iron Heel, Splinterlands is a vivid, suspenseful warning about the ultimate incompatibility between capitalism and human survival.&quot;&#x2014;Mike Davis&#x201C;Feffer&#x2019;s book, in short, is provocative in the best sense&#x2026;.The dystopic alternative, illustrated so powerfully in Feffer&#x2019;s Splinterlands, provides us with powerful motivation to shape a better, less splintered, future.&#x201D;&#xA0;&#x2014;W. J. Astore&quot;Splinterlands&#xA0;paints a startling portrait of a post-apocalyptic tomorrow that is fast becoming a reality today. Fast-paced, yet strangely haunting, Feffer&apos;s latest novel looks back from 2050 on the disintegration of world order told through the story of one broken family-- and offers a disturbing vision of what might await us all if we don&apos;t act quickly.&quot;&#x2014;Barbara Ehrenreich, author of&#xA0;Nickle and Dimed&#xA0;and&#xA0;Living with a Wild God, and founder of the Economic Hardship Reporting Project&#x201C;A chilling portrayal of where the politics of division could take us. Now I only hope he writes the sequel to tell us how to avoid it!&#x201D;&#x2014;Naomi Oreskes, co-author of&#xA0;The Collapse of Western Civilization&#xA0; &#xA0;
