"American War" by Omar el Akkad

Anyone heard of this book? Just found this article: "If America becomes a dystopian hellscape, it might look like this".

Seems he has everything:

"It’s 2075 and America is sunk deep in its second civil war.

Everything has gone to hell. Coastal cities have disappeared under a rising sea; a weaponized plague has killed almost a third of the population; fossil fuels (after it’s too late to matter) have been outlawed, leading to the secession of several Southern states; huge chunks of the Southwest have been annexed by Mexico; an American president has been assassinated by a secessionist suicide bomber; US citizens are targeted in drone attacks; and America is no longer a global hegemon, having been supplanted by rising empires in China and the Middle East."
