It may seem dramatic in places, but ''America City'' is certainly a novel with a message, as it makes readers question whether we can change anything today, in order to preserve our environment for future generations. And yet, it also manages to be light-hearted and entertaining, as it clearly satirises many aspects of today's politics. If you're after the next block-buster read that actually has a conscience, then this might just be for you. If nothing else, you'll enjoy despairing over the fact some of the novel's dire predictions don't seem entirely unrealistic in today's political, and actual, climate.
For further reading, I'd suggest anyone who enjoyed this book might like to check out [[The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins]], another book that both makes alarming predictions about out future, and satirizes many aspects of modern consumer culture, from the obsession with fashion to reality TV. You might appreciate [[The Feed by Nick Clark Windo]]. We've also reviewed [[Mother of Eden by Chris Beckett]].
