Synopsis

In Norse mythology, the day of doom, when the old world and all its inhabitants will be annihilated. Out of the destruction a new world will be born, a world at peace.The day of ice and fire, that brings in its wake devastation to the world.Dr Robert Graham, noted nuclear physicist, has campaigned hard and long for disarmament.Now his patience is at an end.With an ill-assorted handful of desperate, like-minded 'terrorists', he plans to hold the human race to ransom. His bargaining power is terrifying - nothing short of Ragnarok itself. The world governments must listen - or the countdown to nuclear winter has already begun . . .Ragnarok is a terrifying thriller of a planet on the edge of destruction - and a warning of how little it will take to tip the ecological of the world over the edge of survival.
