The sons of J.J. Liddy (The New Policeman, The Last of the High Kings) have become warlords in a world ravaged by global warming. As the situation becomes ever more dire, climate change refugees begin to pour into Tír na n'Óg. Thompson's sparkling wit, droll humor, and nimble plotting are on full display, while the book's theme packs a heavy punch.
