{"product_id":"2940154388686","title":"200m: Forgotness Book 1","description":"\u003cp\u003eSet three decades into the future, when sea levels have risen 200 metres and most of England is underwater. What is left of the UK is divided: Scotland is ruled by remnants of the Tory Party, Wales has been taken over by Scientologists, monks control the North Yorkshire Moors, and now the Evangelicals are arriving in force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStill, there are those who survive on the few hilltops above seawater. Pressure is building on these to find safety, to be allowed into Scotland, after all they were UK citizens once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFelix is sent north to try to find a way to get to higher ground. But how to get past the psychotic windbag Trumps and his gang of marauding Mugs?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eActually, its mainly about a group of women dealing with (and surviving) a male-messed-up world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso, the USA is split and in civil war between the Scientologists in the West and Evangelicals in Middle America (there's not much left of the East Coast). The war in the USA is spilling out across the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e****\u003cbr\u003eBook 2: Forgotness and Book 3: The Winter Bomber are both written but getting 200m ready has taken far longer than I thought (6 months so far). Hopefully getting these two sorted will be quicker.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost of what I have written in the last twenty years have been short stories based on bad dreams. This was different, there were four scenes, only in the last did things get really bad. I began writing that evening, 4 April 2016 and finished September 2016. I have read through it many times and tried to improve it. But if you find anything do please let me know.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is quite a lot of swearing but that's all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough it should be a simple action adventure story: young person fights the powers that be in a difficult world, its not unfortunately. There's an awful lot of things thrown in that have got me very angry (and sad) of late, mainly to do with the loss of liberal values (and I know its hard to keep up to date with these ever changing sets of values but that's the point of them: to keep trying to be better. If you give up and get stuck - then in forty years you become a Conservative). It's difficult to keep up with these values, they develop all the time and one is always a bit behind, a bit in the wrong, a bit embarrassed, but we have to defend them. So sadly, I spend far too much time in this being angry about trump and brexit and trident and climate change and inequality and boris and cults and money and copyright and refugees and wall building and sexism and did I mention climate change and religions, oh and spying on everything we do? So, sorry, it's a bit of a rant probably.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe next two books are written, I need to tidy them up. They will be ready in a few months I expect. Also, it turns out that a story I wrote in 1984 also fits this universe (lead character called Felix, floods, cults, all sounds very familiar).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e170531 - Revised file - got chapters 5 and 6 in wrong order (?@£$!!%\u0026amp;hat;$\u0026amp;£\u0026amp;hat;%!!)\u003cbr\u003e170515 - Revised file - while trying to prepare book for amazon discovered more typos and brought back the 'we'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"T W G Fraser","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47181966344432,"sku":"2940154388686","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940154388686_p0.jpg?v=1764066844","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940154388686","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
