Synopsis: From the back cover of the DAW first printing: "Red tide destroys millions of fish along the seacoast... such were the headlines in American newspapers at the very time the hard-bound edition of this remarkable novel appeared. Subtitled, "A Novel of the Future," David Walker's THE LORD'S PINK OCEAN seemed to be coming true in the very present. But the "red tide" of mutated algae slowly went away - that year. But will it come again? Soon?
Such, as the Columbus Dispatch wrote, is the "ultra-topical" background of this fine novel. It is the story of two feuding families isolated in the last fertile valley of North America after the world's oceans have turned toxic and the lands grey with total death."
