Verdant Entangled

The next era of human history will be triggered by environmental disaster. The long-overdue eruption of Yellowstone's buried supervolcano has finally happened, spewing enough ash into the atmosphere to herald a global extinction event. Earth's desperate residents, led by the President of the United States, immediately try to seek refuge in the four satellite-cities in Earth orbit-Verdant, Tranquil, Fertile and Qing-but the satellites are already at capacity, and further overloading will ruin their survivability as well.
As the satellites find themselves fighting against a forced occupation by populations they cannot hold, a secret group on the satellite Verdant has an agenda of its own, one that will trigger the next age of human history. Verdant Entangled presents a powerful and realistic version of Mankind's future and potential. Steven Lyle Jordan has written a page-turning adventure that, unfortunately, doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility...
It was a difficult book to put down... It's the kind of science fiction that could truly become our reality down the road. -Amazon reviewsVoted 2010 Top Four Reads at dailycheapreads; BOTB semi-finalist at EditorJennifer. Originally titled: Verdant Skies.
