Climate Apocalyptic Fiction

This apocalyptic book contains three separate stories, including a volcano disaster thriller, a tsunami story, and a tornado disaster thriller that takes place in a dystopian setting.

The Ministry for the Future is a masterpiece of the imagination, using fictional eyewitness accounts to tell the story of how climate change will affect us all. Its setting is not a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, but a future that is almost upon us - and in which we might just overcome the extraordinary challenges we face.

There is the market trader, who finds opportunities where others find trouble. There is the detective, whose work will never disappear—along with the lawyers, of course.
