Like an adventure with a buxom heroine, a snarky sidekick, a lovable old man - and cannibals?Living in a desert, attacked at every turn, in an atmosphere choked with poisonous gas?Great start for a science fiction, right? Problem is, someday it won't be fiction. Soon this will be our story - and our world - because climate change is real.Not much debate anymore.Funny thing is, we could slow it down - or even stop it - if we took just one more step . . .And it's not recycling or turning off lights or all the other things they told you about . . . It's the one thing they didn't tell you about -It's halting animal agriculture - the cattle, poultry, hog, and fishing industries that are emptying the oceans, stripping the land, polluting the Earth, and accelerating ecological collapse.But if the world went vegan - if we all stopped eating meat - we'd all be healthier - and so would the planet.So . . . if they're not going to tell you, we are!The Fleshwood Martyr is the story of an Eden destroyed by meat-eaters so self-consumed they are reduced to consuming each other. The last hope lies in a barricaded lab where the remaining sane - Fantasia, Rush, and Dr. Hart - struggle to save an undeserving world - while holding the cannibals at bay!Their solution? The Fleshwood Tree.This miraculous plant will nourish the starving, replenish the air, provide shelter for the suffering -But solutions are never easy, and there is always a cost. Sometimes a terrible cost . . .It's a cautionary tale, but funny and sad and hopeful. The art is delightful, engaging, and, well, a little racy. Enjoy!
