Kim Stanley Robinson creates big complex worlds. He probably is best called a science fiction writer, but his worlds are about future peoples and their struggles, he is a visionary. The adjective âfascinatingâ is over used but he certainly writes fascinating books that are real page turners. I'm a big fan.

Triggers: There is violence in the book, but it's mostly âoff screen'. There is a fair amount of accidents where people get injured or killed because of the climate.

Antarctica is about to be commercialized, this book is about the clash between environmentalists and their corporate enemies with dithering politicians
