A book I'm working on

[James Blackwood]

I've dubbed it 'Poignance' for now and I'm making progress on it and I've got an idea for the first book ready. Also, it's about a world war in a sense so please, don't be offended by the countries I chose for certain actions. Most of it is chosen at random or for it's place in our ladder ATM. The governmental figures are entirely fictional so yeah.

Plot:
In 2015, humanity has escelated to a population of 28 billion people. Food supplies are dwindling, petrol is a rich man's commodity and slowly Earth is beginning to be unable to support us. Then, the Brittish Government announces a plan to bring humanity down to acceptable numbers - A staged world war with heavy consequences. From there hatred is sparked and flames are kindled as new head appear leading the countries - Determined to win the bloodiest war the Earth has seen.

Books:
Poignance - Book 1, the first year of the war.
Amnesia - Book 2, the second year. This time with (hopefully) a theme similar to Tommorrow When the War Began our civilian hero/ines begin to fight back.
- Book 3, an huge buildup and the end of the series.

That's not much, but what do you guys think of the idea?

Sounds pretty good so far. I'm working on a book myself.

Same here although its more generic fantasy with a slight twist XD

I'm working on a deconstruction of RomCom tropes crossed with a bizarre coming-out story and a Fawlty Towers plot.

Your story sounds better though xP
I can't see a government wanting to start a war with another country though. Perhaps Britain could try and kill their own citizens which becomes a second English civil war (First British civil war perhaps?)

Then it gets all *bleh* as other countries get involved/

Just a suggestion.

It's going to be Brittain starting it with a few countries reluctantly agreeing to stage it when a few back out, only to be swiftly attacked from the shadows with terrorism and even an attack from a non-participant country, setting it off for real.
