I couldn't put this book down! I love Max's writing style, very pacey and readable. The best thing about this story though was the concept - is there a third reason for climate change? The way the story has historical facts mingled with fiction makes me wonder if this really could be happening. I don't generally subscribe to conspiracy theories, but the author just could be onto something here. As one avid reader to others I would recommend this story as a thought provoking and entertaining read that shouldn't be missed. Thank you Max Oberon.

A great mix of fact and fiction and sometimes wondering where the fiction started and fact finished. A real page turner right to the end. This story was much more than a story about climate chance, it had great characters too. Have given a five ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating due to fact I found myself constantly wanting to get back to the story whenever I had to put the book down. Great read, will look forward to the next book from this author.

A great read...This book isn't in-your-face about climate change: instead the story is a modern suspense and adventure tale based on an intelligent new theory on Climate Change. The story lines are well executed and the book has an interesting fusion of fiction with fact that make the story much more believable. It is a page turn that will keep you interested to the end.

This is quite a clever story and it's easy to put it down and start wondering if we've all been hoodwinked when it comes to the real cause of climate change. I guess it's a bit far-fetched but it definitely left me thinking about it long after I finished reading which I think is one indicator of a good book. There are some real comparisons to be made with Clive Cussler’s work which is no small compliment.

Have reached the end and am grinning like a sugared-up teenager :) what a hoot! Read it in 2 sittings and thoroughly enjoyed it. Spoiler free, the plot involves 2 seriously fit energy professionals enjoying a liaison against the backdrop of the discovery that one of the world's superpowers is engineering asset extraction on a grand scale with global consequences that concern them not.
Against the daily media revelations of corporate greed and climate doom and gloom/obfuscation, this scenario is less far fetched than one might initially expect.
The writing is light but informed, evolving from early clunkiness to sure-footed rather breathtaking surety towards the end. Loved it and looking forward to putting it into Bookclub.

Very intriguing novel that is more than just a book on climate change. In 1979 Senator Tom Bradley and his wife died when their plane crashed in Antarctica. Their son Jack was devastated and thirty years later finds himself back in the same area where his parents died, although he doesn't have a clue as to what has been going on the last thirty years and what the conspiracy means for the planet and for him and his new friend Shirley.
The author did a great job tying all the loose ends together and making this suspenseful conspiracy thriller one for readers to grab.
