The sudden crash of China's grain harvest in Dan Armstrong's novel Prairie Fire makes last years drout & shortfall in Australia look like penny-ante poker.  It exposes the global grain market, Peak Oil blues & chemo cattle grain-crop dues from inside out. But 'Prairie Fire' is scary future fiction now, revealing multi-crisis in firey psychodrama! The many characters

battle in global war economy, climate crisis ecology & how US farming industry works. Dan graphically describes how secret plots, farm field strategies & smokey room bargaining of pyramid power brokers

rip-off economics against farmers protests.

 

I had to lay my bias down to dig the strategy, plans, & fears of players in farmers versus empire market wars -conspiracy story. It exposes more political shit than we deserve to know. How did Dan imagine such possible details he tells like ÔThe Coming Global SuperstormÕ fiction that became ÔThe Day After TomorrowÕ movie. Recall ÒEcotopiaÓ & ÒThe Monkey-wrench GangÓ?  DanÕs future seeing eye of coming culture wars, passions & fears of innocent & corrupt people is deeper than any novel IÕve read. It delves into desperately driven souls conflicts & power-struggles over empire surplus, greedy marketeers, mad farmers & growing climate crisis with Peak oil crash threatening. ItÔs so unbelievable, yet may come true. Who knows? Next year? Next decade?

 

Will its Eurasian oil pipeline & other globalist scenarios happen? Remember when US dairy farmers dumped their milk decades ago in midwest? The shocking intrigue & corruption seems common now, with similar movies like ÒThe Constant GardenerÓ & ÒTail Wags the Dog? The US/UK/Euro/UN empires are so sneaky & greedy for billions that family farmers will risk all for revenge. These Kami-kaze food, $$$, & oil wars converge in ÔPrairie FireÕ with explosive outcome of worst American nitemares! This screams for solutions, but bad karma burns their ass. This could be the peak oil grain-fed blues movie of 2012?
