Sixty Days and Counting
by Kim Stanley RobinsonReview by Ernest Lilley Bantam Hardcover ISBN/ITEM#: 0553803131 Date: 27 February, 2007 List Price $25.00 Amazon US / Amazon UK / Show Article / Sixty Days and Counting concludes Kim Stanley Robinson's Capital Climatology Crisis, but the weather trilogy ends not with thunder, hail, tornadoes , a new ice age or a killer drought, but but with a spring day and another turn of the great mandala. It turns out that a disaster movie really is better than a book by a Hard SF author. The Day After Tomorrow may have been a classic disaster movie with laughable science, but in the end it was more entertaining than KSR's countdown to global warming. From official release/information: From back of book: Food scarcity, housing shortages, diminishing medical care, vanishing species -- these are just some of the consequences of a global weather pattern gone haywire. President-elect Phil Chase has responded by organizing the most ambitious plan to save the world since FDR -- and assembling a team of top scientists and political advisors to implement it. But is it already too late? (Source: Bantam)
