Synopsis
<P>Earth, 2212: The novel, third in the <I>Against The Machine </I>trilogy, yet free standing on its own, tells of a dystopian society in the midst of catastrophic climate change. Billions have died. The minority of people remaining inhabit the MEGs, former cities transformed by technology into huge protective domes; outside is the MASS living by subsistence.

With worsening climate, the MASS increasingly restive and their AI Silicons becoming sentient, those at the top have concocted a final solution: to leave Earth for Alpha Centauri, destroying the planet in their wake. Four protagonists, each from separate segments of this world, come together to attempt to prevent the plan. By the end they have managed to alter the human/machine interface, so changing human evolution.Some stories deserve to be kept, displayed, and revisited.
The future isn't waiting, it's collapsing.
Step inside a world on the brink, where climate, AI, and humanity collide in a final battle for survival.
Open the book and join the fight to save what's left of Earth... before the last escape ship leaves without you.
Bring home the hardcover edition and let the revolution live on your shelf.
