Description
A chilling geopolitical thriller and real-world cautionary tale presenting a dark yet very possible future of war between the US and China – from two former military officers and award-winning authors
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ‘A rippingly good read’ Wired
______________
12 March 2034.
In the South China Sea, US Navy Commodore Sarah Hunt is conducting routine freedom of navigation patrol while US Marine aviator Major Chris ‘Wedge’ Mitchell tests a new stealth technology near Iranian airspace.
By the end of the day, Wedge will be an Iranian prisoner, and Hunt’s destroyer will lie at the bottom of the ocean.
And a new, terrifying era will be at hand.
So begins a disturbingly plausible novel, co-authored by an award-winning novelist and decorated Marine veteran and the former commander of NATO, a legendary admiral.
Everything in 2034 is an imaginative extrapolation from present-day facts on the ground, informed by the authors’ years working at the highest and most classified levels of national security. Because sometimes it takes a brilliant work of fiction to illuminate the most dire of warnings.
‘I could not stop reading 2034’ Phil Klay, author of Redeployment

This is not the sort of book I would usually choose, but the cover caught my eye and I'm so glad it did! I don't want to give away any more than the blurb already says but the story follows the two characters mentioned there, along with several others and explores how the decisions of only a few people, can have catastrophic knock-on consequences globally. The story is pacy and there were several events that were completely unexpected. I liked several of the characters and found them to be really well-written. I have found myself thinking and talking about this book a lot more than I expected too.
