2034 by Elliot Ackerman and James Stavridis received a glowing review from The Wall Street Journal. They write: “It is hard to write in great detail about what ensues in this novel without giving away the drama of its denouement. Suffice it to say that there is conflict and catastrophe on a large scale, and it unfolds, as major conflicts tend to, with surprising twists and turns…This is not a pessimistic book about America’s potential, but the picture of the world it paints before the central conflict will be a difficult one for many to accept, albeit one well supported by facts: The wealth and power of the U.S. are in relative decline, especially compared with a rising Asia’s.” Penguin Press published the novel on March 9, 2021.
