Talk about a wild story. This is it. What a great premise. Cyberspace has developed a technology of microbots to further the betterment of mankind, or is it. What happens when the new technology is stolen (by a brother) then shuffled to a prominent Senator of the United States whose eyes are filled with visions of grandeur, which includes the demise of her husband, The President of the United States.The technology was developed to help bodies heal from massive injuries or debilitating diseases. Unfortunately, with the correct devices a user can infect a subject and control their bodies to perform activities their rational mind would never contemplate. The cool part, the bots attach to the retinal nerve and allow the user to see everything that's happening, in real time. Very nice indeed.For such a majestic plot, I felt the execution was a bit slow. As you close in on the end, in an effort to bring all of the strings together, there were too many scenes occurring at the same time. It reminded me of a movie from the seventies, "Damnation Alley." In the movie we were allowed to be viewing four to six scenes at the same time as the story line reached the climax. Unfortunately, we aren't afforded the same luxury with a book.Overall, a very exciting read. I would like to chat with other for a few minutes as I have a few editing questions.A solid four!
