It combines elements of science fiction, fantasy and horror and contains themes of gender, politics, and environmental change.

[1] Ax Preston, a mixed-race guitarist from Taunton, having survived a government organized massacre of the official Green Party (under cover of a pop-culture reception), emerges as the true leader England desperately needs.

He and his friends, also indie musicians, tackle a series of disasters, including a minor war with Islamic Separatists in Yorkshire, and a hippie President who turns out to be a murdering pedophile.

In the background the whole of Europe is falling apart, in the foreground there are rock festivals, street-fighting, a rampage of "Green" destruction (led and moderated by Preston) leaving a trail of burned-out hypermarkets, wrecked fast food outlets, and vast expanses of napalmed intensive farming.

Preston succeeds in supporting his country through the crisis, utilizing his guile, self-sacrifice, goodwill, and the power of the music.
