Gibbon’s famous The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire is an excellent history of how the accumulation of wealth and power into fewer and fewer hands eventually brought down Rome, the greatest empire of all times. In this novel of modern times, the author shows that the United States is headed down this same path. With more sophisticated weapons and wealth than any nation has ever accumulated, this new nobility wields its power ruthlessly, and only the education and resistance of its own people can save the world from self-destruction.In the midst of global terrorism, where the rich and the powerful use economic terrorism and others use murder, a small band of unlikely saviors make use of modern technology to expose the evil controllers of wealth and power and hopefully defuse the struggle. They use the basic weapons of technology such as the computers and media. For example, you will meet a modern computer genius Robin Hood who steals from the rich to help the poor and a band of freedom-loving people who practice peaceful resistance to conquer the rulers who persecute them. We can only hope that they are not too late.
