Synopsis "As the Waters Rise: Can the Colony of New York survive climate change?"

"Strong postapocalyptic worldbuilding supports a gripping family drama." - from Kirkus Reviews "There are some fantastic subplots ... an unexpected backstory and brilliant texture. The writing is tight ... explodes spectacularly alongside the eruption of violence, with an undeniable charge that keeps the reader fully invested ... Very highly recommended" - Five Stars from Readers' Favorite "Feltman's world-building is exceptional, seamlessly blending the remnants of a once-thriving massive city with the challenges of life underground." Five Stars from Amy's Bookshelf Reviews Can the Colony of New York survive climate change? The year is 2375 AD. Forced underground in 2085 AD by a violent, powerful hurricane, New Yorkers have been living in their subway ever since. Malcolm "Manny" Stewart has reached the pinnacle of his career as Police Commissioner of the underground Colony. While most people don't believe humans ever lived above ground, Manny knows better. He understands that climate change isn't over. Staten Island has disappeared into the ocean. All around the subway tunnels, the ground is shifting and changing; cracked walls and broken pipes plague homeowners. But there is no plan for an evacuation, and no one seems to care. Desperate to prepare for the coming crisis, Manny begins to build shelters in what was once Central Park, above ground. Ridiculed on SoshMedia as a foolish eccentric indulging a peculiar whim, Manny is determined to use his own vast fortune to build shelters, but with no machines, progress is painfully slow. At home, Manny is besieged by problems. His relationship with his second wife is strained, and his adolescent son hates him. Raised by an abusive father, Manny's past comes crashing down on him as he struggles to raise his own son. But Manny's greatest legacy is not the building of shelters. It is something else entirely.
