## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A terrific, hopeful read about a grim subject
  

*by C***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 28, 2023*

Splinterlands is an amazing start to a brilliantly constructed and gorgeously crafted trilogy about an already broken future which can still be fixed.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The Splintering
  

*by J***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 7, 2017*

This short speculative novel by John Feffer presents a chilling view of a global collapse just around the corner. A literal splintering. For those paying attention to the direction globalization is taking us, the narrative is convincing. Not so appealing is the “presentation” of the “content.” Therein lies the problem: the narrator, an academic and acclaimed author Julian West describes his literal displacement by Hurricane (ahem) Donald in 2022 which floods and decimates Washington, D.C., forcing West to his roof. Thank you, global warming.It is not clear at the outset why, but some twenty-five years later, aged and in ill-health, West is bedridden and decides to contact his three estranged children and wife, all scattered across the globe. He does this with a virtual headset and avatar, Virtual tours plus “face to face” meetings in venues as diverse as Brussels, China, and Africa. West’s children have all taken separate paths, adjusting to the collapse in their own ways, but all have misgivings with their father. So we basically have three separate dialectics which doesn’t make for fully fleshed out drama. The splintering of the family is directly analogous to the splintering of the geopolitical landscape. Like the Syfy series, “Incorporated,” there are green and red zones.This is less of a problem in the concluding two chapters where human interaction is more compelling. West contacts his estranged wife of 25 years, Rachel, also once a scholar researcher, who turned her back on academia to join a commune in Vermont, quite successfully as it turns out. West is receiving some experimental treatment for a pandemic staph infection. Rachel is ill, too and Julian wants them to be together to share the treatment. The transmission is cut off before she can answer.In the final chapter we learn why West is receiving the treatment and from whom as well as other ulterior motives for contacting his family. It’s worth a look and makes for a quick read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    One possible future for our kids and grands
  

*by N***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 5, 2021*

Its a well written near future by a careful writer who understands English and the coming climate breakdown and its concomitant collapse of our civil society and its collapse with  European and Asian scenarios where the authors kids have chosen to live.  It's nice to know I can visit them by hologram from my hospital bed.  A different world; different endings and realities just beyond tomorrow.  Its worth reading - and thinking about.  Definitely a 4.5 rating
