About the Book

Engineer Gerald Gottlieb was laughed off the stage for saying humanity’s backup plan wasn’t on Mars. It was 900 feet down, inside an undersea mountain. So he built it anyway. When Yellowstone erupts and the sky goes dark, his seamount city becomes humanity’s ark. But the AI that runs the city has been making choices of its own, including who was allowed aboard.

For readers of Andy Weir, Blake Crouch, and Michael Crichton.

Practical knowledge for hard times and good ones: growing your own food with aquaponics, cooking for a real family with real constraints, and building a life with no single point of failure. Written for the grandkids. Useful for everyone.
