This is the long-awaited 4th book of The Chronicles of Henry Roach-Dairier, a future world without people. Think Planet of the Ants, not Planet of the Apes, for young adults and adults.
Christmas When Music Almost Killed the World is a novel in which nothing is quite what it seems and everything is loaded with shadowy dreams of the past and nightmares set to soul-pounding music of the future.
After decades of attempting to absorb the literature of the world (no less), Tolkien was a revelation, turning medieval sagas into entertainment with a message. As a journalist I clearly saw my social obligation to help make the world a better place, but it took half a lifetime to see that all we can ever change is ourselves, and even longer to realize that no rational decision will ever get us there. Change requires all our passion, a spellbinding story rather than a textbook of neurolinguistic processing.
