I’m a Tolkien fan, and have recently been looking for some post-modern fiction. I really like Stirling’s concept. This looks like my next read. Thanks for the review.

I know what you mean; sometimes the idea of living a much more primitive lifestyle sounds kind of attractive. This book borders on sci-fi or magical realism though, insofar as the technology is not just shot down or disabled, but the laws of physics and thermodynamics themselves seemed to have somehow been affected. Crazy stuff. Thanks for the comment Christopher. I know what you mean; sometimes the idea of living a much more primitive lifestyle sounds kind of attractive.

What it depicts could well become reality, particularly now that communications satellites can be shot down easily by countries not friendly to the country to which the satellite belongs. It is the desert nomads and tent dwellers of our world who will survive intact a worldwide catastrophe, while we, the glib children of technology, will be as lost as little children without their mothers.
