All you need to do to boil an ocean is set the world on fire. In a retelling of his Orwellian 2015 Black Swan Saga, award-winning author Mikael Carlson reintroduces a speculative fiction saga showing the world's terrifying dystopian future. Boiling the Ocean is the third novel in a planned six-book serial drama. Readers are strongly encouraged to begin the journey with this The Black Swan Event and enjoy the America, Inc. Saga in the order they were written. The America, Inc. Saga follows a global economic collapse in 2039 that brought governments to their knees and chaos across the globe. To fill the power vacuum, giant multinational corporations, backed by wealthy benefactors, seized the reins of power and began governing the masses. Nearly fifty years later, there is no crime, no unemployment, no homelessness, and no war. All that progress came at a price - individual freedom. The end was only the beginning... For the first time in its history, the world's lone stock exchange is offline. The unexplained "aberrant trading behavior" has caused panic and confusion around the globe. While the new chief executive officer of America Incorporated and Intercorpex's administrator-general take drastic measures to restore confidence and maintain their power, patrician Denali Keating has something more devious in mind. New York is reeling from the terrorist attacks, but the worst is yet to come. As employees overcome the shock of the senseless carnage, Intercorpex schedules a summit with the world's most powerful elites at their Midtown Manhattan headquarters. The gathering is the best hope for reconciliation...and a tempting target for a terrorist bent on causing havoc and destruction. When an unlikely communication tips security forces off to his deadly plan, the race to stop an unthinkable massacre begins. The ensuing manhunt leads to surprising changes in fortune as former heroes become useful scapegoats, and the global balance of power shifts dramatically. By the end of the day, the one beacon of light left to beat back the encroaching darkness will find itself in grave danger of being extinguished. Born from the ashes left by the collapse of world governments in 2039, the world in 2088 is eerily similar to the present - filled with surveillance, propaganda, greed, and opportunism. The America, Inc. Saga is the next great struggle between liberty and tyranny. Loyalties are shifting, and alliances are fracturing. Political bickering threatens to undo the "utopian" corporatist society. Can differences be set aside, or will bounded rationality allow the "terrorists" to move closer to implementing a new world order?
