About this eBook
For many years, environmental catastrophe has been discounted as myth or propaganda. However, the science is now proven. Tides are rising and storms are brewing. Soon, the oil must run out...
In a suburban home on the outskirts of Milton Keynes, a small family is fraying at the seams, and on the brink of a collapse of their own. Imprisoned by grief, Arnold witnesses the inexorable downwards spiral of his neighbourhood on television, from the confines of his living room. Fifty years on, Noah - a child in our times – is thrust into a dense, compact Britain he hardly recognizes, adrift in a society in the throes of transformation. Years later, the experiment falters and Nature threatens to take over entirely. Noah’s daughter Eve faces unimaginable consequences and her will to survive is tested to its limits...
THE FALL OF MAN begins in the Britain of today. Three successive generations struggle to exist in a future rife with change. Their story chronicles a series of cataclysmic, global events, from the perspective of an all-too-human family.

About the author
Ed Green is a practicing architect, and is currently living in Cardiff, Wales. He has a PhD from the Welsh School of Architecture, where he also tutors. For some time, he has been preoccupied by the question: what are the implications of our daily actions on our future as a society? The Fall of Man is Ed's first novel. It attempts to address the question in an exciting and thought provoking way, rather than a dry academic one (he tried that way first, so he knows!) Visit visions-of-britain.com for more of Ed's ideas, inspirations and resources...
