The Awakening

The trees have awoken. As the Earth's natural conscience, trees have decided to take drastic action to cleanse the planet, targeting the sources of human-caused pollution with terrifying force. Roads are destroyed by roots, people are killed, and escape is impossible. As the world falls apart, humans everywhere descend into desperation. The world is at a breaking point. Sarah and her team of five friends, who work across environmental groups, face a perilous journey to save humanity and their world, not only through the hostile environment, but also through the human conflict that arises in the face of existence. And they must navigate their fragile coexistence with the very environment they've dedicated their lives to saving. Set against the backdrop of London, the story explores humanity's understanding of nature, and offers an unsettling vision of what happens when it decides to fight back. Nothing is certain, and the danger is far from over. Fans of "The Ice Limit" by Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child, the "Silo Series" by Hugh Howey, and "Prey" by Michael Crichton will enjoy "The Awakening" by Neil Bailey.
