Paolo Bacigalupi

Lee Child on The Water Knife, a near-future thriller about climate change and drought in the southwestern United States.: “These days are coming, and as always fiction explains them better than fact. This is a spectacular thriller, wonderfully imagined and written, and racing through it will make you think—and make you thirsty.” Publishers Weekly described the “epic, visionary novel” by multiple award-winning author Paolo Bacigalupi as containing “elements of Philip K. Dick and Charles Bowden.”Paolo’s fall young adult thriller, The doubt factory, was a nominee for the Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America.
