Description

A horrific would-be world, destroyed by climate change: the American Southwest has run out of water, and immense political instability is the result. Las Vegas is controlled by the opportunistic Catherine Case, who uses her water knife to cut waterlines to neighboring cities and suburbs. California is run by rich water corporations, which ruthlessly blow up damns to redirect water. Phoenix has become a harsh dust-world of depravity, ruled by capricious, indiscriminate overlords.
