Produktinformationen zu „Adam Dreamt (ePub)“

Adam knows something is seriously wrong. The lower levels of the city are under water and uninhabitable, the temperature of the air is rising and an unpleasant odour has pervaded every tunnel, vault and chamber and is seeping out to the surface above. But as the youngest and most recently appointed Elder in AntLand, his concerns are being ignored. It is only when the Queen herself charges him with the responsibility of finding a suitable site for a new city-state that he discovers he is not alone in his fears. In giving Adam this undertaking, however, the Queen has made him an enemy of the most powerful ant in the kingdom: AyJay Heartland, the Queen's Senior Advisor and ChairAnt of The Council of Elders, whose desire is to make AntLand 'bigger, better, best'.

Adam sets off on his quest under the cover of darkness, taking with him Zekiel the Wise and a contingent of JourneyAnts. He soon discovers that the perils facing AntLand are more serious than he could ever have imagined.

Autoren-Porträt von Nicholas Kyriacos

Nicholas Kyriacos taught English for 40 years to students aged between 11 to 18 prior to retiring in 2019. Billy's Tree, his first novel, deals with the impossibility of escaping your past and the need to confront injustices. His second novel, The Fall of Donnald Trummp, Sarrah Pallin, Hillary Clinnton, Anon 1488 ... and The Rise of The Coyote! is an irreverent, tragic and comic story which conveys a serious longing to rekindle an America which has betrayed its own ideals. Adam Dreamt, his third novel, was inspired by George Orwell's Animal Farm. It focuses on the inhabitants of an isolated ants' nest who are slowly destroying their own civilization. Ants with various characteristics are represented in this story: the philosopher Zekiel the Wise; Adam Ant, the environmentalist who sacrifices all for an ideal; the quixotic Young Nano, who hankers for a better world, and the ruthless ChairAnt of The Council of Elders, AyJay Heartland, whose only concern is power.Comparable works to Adam Dreamt are Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, for its magic realism and theme; George Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm for style, theme and tone and F.Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, for its cautionary exploration of excess, greed and selfishness.
