Termination Shock

5 stars

For once a properly thought out, coherent, and well paced (from start to end) book from Stephenson. Given the times we now find ourselves in, the climate discourse is most likely about to be weaponised by the tangerine man baby and his sycophants. This tale is testament to the fact that maybe, just maybe, an individual (albeit one with rather a lot of resource and connections) could make a difference. As usual with Stephenson, lots of ideas and concepts, unlike some of his previous efforts, these all seem eminently achievable in the short term. I found it well written, engaging, and hugely enjoyable to read.,
