At some point in the relatively near future, Planet Earth has hurtled even further towards meltdown. Water and petrol are rationed, the government has become more authoritarian, there has been an information clampdown and shadowy corporations are wielding even more power than ever. Only the youth seem to understand what's really going on. A group of teen eco-warriors known as the GeeZers (I know, I know, and there are plenty more silly names to come) are the only people fighting to save the biosphere.

|comment= I am in agreement with the reviewer's very positive conclusion but a little surprised at her criticisms of the book.
I did not find the plot at all difficult to follow and found the pace just right. I also enjoyed the puns in the names. Perhaps I am just not a good critic!

Mea culpa! I emailed the link sent to us to a few people who'd read the book; thought they'd be interested.

This, I found, kept my interest in the book and I am looking forward to the sequel.
