...i'm trying to find a book about a chemical that can freeze all the worlds water. Its a fairly common and oldish sci-fi book. Anyone recall what im talking about?
It wouldn't be Cat's Cradle by Vonnegut would it?
No...the name of the compound was like "Agent 9" or something. I cant remember. I blieve the book is sort of apocolyptic.
I'm pretty sure that's the one...
Ya. It is. Thanks man. "Ice Nine" was the name of the chemical.
No prob, I remember reading this book ages ago.
