The energy companies, bankers, and industrialists have left western U.S. cities in ruins and turmoil. A pastoral economy is rising out of the ashes, but what’s left of the urban power elite isn’t ready to cede power. In this dystopian novel, two men, a Hopi Indian and conjurer and an old man in search of his son, travel to a ravaged desert city ruled by a despot on the warpath…
Good News asks us to look around and take stock of what we value before it is too late.
“Edward Abbey is a war horse, a wild horse, and one of a kind. He writes of the death of America, but he is fighting for its life.” -Edward Hoagland
