Twenty Twenty Eight is a fast paced adventure set against a background of political speculation, in the near future, when oil and energy resources are entirely depleted. The story focuses on the inter-action between the various characters and their enduring love for one another, when confronted by a totalitarian state in near collapse; a state that is being forced into surrender by subversive gangs taking over the cities. The action centres on a group of people who stockpile food, arms and ammunition in a disused lead mine in order to defend themselves against desperate, half-starved hoards pouring out of the cities. Eventually they realise their situation is becoming hopeless and decide to escape the horror altogether. Heading across country to a small schooner they sail away to what they believe will be a new Utopia. But what awaits them is something just as ominous. In this fast paced but wonderfully evocative novel David Greason Walker paints a strikingly vivid picture of how our world could be in the not too distant future. But he also applauds love, adventure and wide exotic landscapes, giving hope for the future however arduous life may become. The story also explores the part myth, part reality of our modern world; the spectacle of a life we are supposed to believe in, as opposed to the truth behind the spectacle!
