Manor Farm - J Alan Jones When Mother Gaia made the world, her finest creations were the dinosaurs. She loved them as if they were her own children, which, in a way they were. However, big dinosaurs create major problems. Two in particular; dung and flatulence. When Mother Gaia realised that her creations were inadvertently destroying the climate with their continuous guffing she had to act. She put an end to the dinosaurs and started again. But her later creations were to prove a bigger problem. After their discovery of fossil fuels and nuclear power, the animals of Gaia seemed to be on a path of self destruction. But, before Mother Gaia could act, the animals had come up with their own solution and it was not a pleasant one. In this superb prequel to Orwell’s Animal Farm and 1984, J Alan Jones has given the reader plenty of food for thought as we see the world through the eyes of the animals that inhabit it. At turns, funny, sad, perplexing and thought provoking in the deepest sense of the word, Manor Farm is a must read for the modern age. It’s highly recommended. By the way, see if you work out the names, it’s all part of the fun. (about 33,000 words) Price: £3.00 Quantity:
