The Anthropocene is the current geologic age, in which humans have profoundly reshaped the planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from his groundbreaking podcast, best-selling author John Green reviews different facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale - from the QWERTY keyboard and sunsets to Canada geese and Penguins of Madagascar.

Del is moving up. One of the problems with life in the asteroid belt, though, is that “up” depends a lot on your point of view. She’s built a good life for herself out here, balancing her job as an Enforcer of what passes for the Belt’s laws, with her extra activities that the rest of the Enforcers can never find out about. But when the voices that plagued her childhood come back, she fails to prevent a terrorist attack, and her best friend is assigned to the investigation, all her secrets threaten to come out and her good life begins to unravel.

Four intertwining stories. Four points of view of a single large event. Four people from different backgrounds with different ideals. And a secret society of werewolves is unveiled in Portland, Oregon. For 400 years, they have kept their secret. Some will do anything to reveal it. Others will sacrifice everything to keep it. Alliances will be forged and shattered. Friendships will be made and betrayed. Conspiracies within conspiracies will keep you guessing. And by the end, nothing will be the same.
