Marea tóxica

This was rather excellent. An eco scifi story that morphs into a cyberpunk and techno thriller. Set a couple of decades in the future, a Chinese peninsula absorbs all the world's trash. Yet in a world of tech-enhanced prostheses and biological viruses toxic waste has become more dangerous. Silicon Isle is also the site of class struggle, and a very Chinese merging of animism and techno futurism. Add to that the continous exploitation of the east through western nations, dressed up as greenwashed capitalism. And our heroes are right in the middle of the clashes between the west and the east, between the fighting mafia clans controlling the island, between the locals and the immigrants. A really solid scifi, very much grounded in today's geopolitcal and ecological developments, with great characters and partially quite haunting literary visions of our future.
