State of Fear Climax: George Morton vs. NERF

The climax in State of Fear is George Morton vs. NERF. There are many conflicts in this story but this was the main conflict in the book thus creating the climax. Throughout the whole book George Morton was investigating and trying to stop NERF even though we do not find this out until the end. During the book we find out that Nicolas Drake has misplaced $250,000 and that there are fake organizations that fund the E.L.F. Drake is part of both the E.L.F and NERF and we find out that he is using Morton’s generous funding to support the terrorist group. The Climax is not until the end of the book where the characters are on the Solomon Islands and the reader finds out that Morton was alive the whole time and what he was doing. Although George Morton was only around for the beginning and the end of the book he is still the most important character. All the other characters throughout the book are either working secretly with George in his absence or they are working to find out what George already knew about NERF. Whether or not you agree that the climax is George Morton Vs. NERF you have to agree that NERF itself was a big part of the climax.
