The Lost Cause

Wrote a review for

This is an entertaining story of survival in a future that is heavily impacted by climate change. There are a couple of minor story aspects that are nearly impossible to conceive as happening in the real world. They aren't important to the story, however. The most unbelievable sentence in the story:

"On the other hand, I was a democratic socialist who could check any tool, table, appliance, or vehicle out of the public library, a citizen of the twenty-first century who could access every book ever published and every song ever recorded with a few taps on a screen, . . ."

While technology could enable libraries to share every book, song, movie, and other 'intellectual property' - the lawyers will never let it happen.
