This book is written in the science-fiction genre; however, it points out a real underlying power struggle caused by the limited remaining fossil fuels and the rapid industrialization of countries with billions of people wanting the good life that they have seen on television. The political pressure from some of the oil-rich nations is affecting the political positions of freedom-loving nations and splitting old allies on crucial votes in the United Nations and weakening the war against terrorism. The author writes a delightful, entertaining, sometimes funny, sometimes danger-filled story about a single-minded group of fun-loving characters brought together to build the first hydrogen generating plant in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The facts are: unlimited energy is in the oceans of the world, the engineering work in this book is for real, and we don’t need an oil-based economy.
