Farmer, Philip José - Traitor To The Living - Plot & Excerpts
Gordon Carfax had intended never to see Los Ange- les again. Here he was, aboard a jet lowering on the flight path into the new Riverside International Airport. Below, over western Arizona, the air was a thick gray-green. The mountains under them looked like a subterranean range seen through a glass-bottom submarine. Down there was the Kofa Game Reserve, where, it was reported, the last of the wild North American pumas still roamed, though coughing and watery-eyed. There were also some saguaro cacti, which had died out except in a few small areas. The polluted air, however, was only partially responsible for the near-extinction of the giant cactus. The president of the United States had promised that within ten years, no matter what the cost, the smog would be back to the 1973 level. The plane landed and taxied to its appointed station and was presently joined by a telescoping umbilical to the terminal. Carfax walked into the cavernous air-conditioned building.
