Twenty years ago, Marks went into the rainforest with a group of researchers led by Doctor Elaine Fell, to study the extraordinary climate and see if it could be used in agriculture. The only thing she learned was that the Zone was no place for people. There were deaths, and the programme was cut short. Now, theyre sending her back in. A plane crash, a rescue mission, a race against time and the environment to bring out the survivors. But there are things Markss corporate masters arent telling her.

Review "Tchaikovsky focuses the taut story in such a way that every detail is relevant, building towards a climax that feels like a perfect pay-off." -- SFX Magazine on Firewalkers"Tchaikovsky knocks it out the park… A cunning take on both fantasy tropes and heroes journeys. He sticks the landing, too, with a last paragraph that perfectly pays off what came before it." -- Locus Magazine on Ogres"A masterclass in concise storytelling... The book whips along at a rapid pace and characters are cleverly rendered. A fantastically easy read." -- SciFiNow on Firewalkers"An absurdly funny, sharply written novella... a must-read for genre newbies and sci-fi fans alike." -- Starburst Magazine on One Day All This Will be Yours"Readers with a bent for social commentary and solving puzzles will be doubly pleased." -- Publishers Weekly on Ogres Promotional A group of scientists and soldiers are hunted by mysterious enemies in a terrifying new climate thriller from the "Master of British SF" Details ISBN1837861749 Author Adrian Tchaikovsky Publisher Rebellion Publishing Ltd.
