Author's Note: This standalone novel takes place almost seventeen years after the short story HARM, which introduced the giant humanoid robots called HARMs. These robots are piloted by humans who can neurally synchronize with the robot control systems to gain the maximum potential of the machines. Humanity has established a truce with the invaders after fighting them to a standstill by the end of the Alien War. However, the political landscape of Earth has changed in the massive upheaval caused by the Blue Newts, who have claimed much of the tropical and subtropical regions of the planet for their own colonies. Neo Ace continues building the future history that was begun in HARM and then Raid on Kahamba. The first eight chapters have been presented here as a preview of the full book with 30+ chapters. The full ebook can be found at Amazon.

Recommended by Wattpad talent hunters, SINGULARITY! (Shameless advertising I know...) http://blog.wattpad.com/post/19395726078/friday-find-singularity Its a time when man has the potential to become immortal, where nanotechnology allows for people to manipulate the world and their surroundings at their whim, when a virtual reality, can become ones true reality, and when anyone can travel the universe as gods... But the line between humanity, and something potentially much greater has become blurred, and a man unwilling to take that final step, to evolve, finds himself left behind in a world technologically far beyond the point where he can live out a normal, human life. For better or for worse, this is the end of humanity as we have known it, the result of a single event... The Singularity.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state. A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier. Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do. Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.

Growing up in North Korea, in the days before her Father destroyed the world, Young Moon was happy. At least she thought she was, but that was so long ago and she was so very young. Her Father would grow excited when he told her impossible tales of the Great Neighbor, China, with dozens of astronauts in orbit and on the Moon. There was a small base on Mars, too, being built by robots, and even bigger stations -- the ring cities -- were planned. Young Moon used to get uncomfortable and wished he would lower his voice. Their walls were thin in Wonsan and school taught her that this kind of talk was treason. Teacher said the Dear Leader would know if you didn't pay proper respect to the glories of the Homeland, and he could get very cross with you if he found out. Every screen was two-way and you never knew if someone was watching. All she wanted was to be left alone to talk to the visions in her drawings -- visions that came to warn her of impending danger. But a chance word spoken by an angry classmate would force Young Moon's family to flee North Korea for China, where she would witness her father set in motion a world-shaking disaster of epic proportions. THE END OF EDEN is the first book in the Water Worlds™ sci-fi adventure series, chronicling the terraforming of the inner worlds of the Solar System as seen through the eyes of generations of young women.
