Garner Nanotechnology is developing nanotech-enhanced protective suits and autonomous first-aid nanobots. When it saves Brent Cleary from a pipeline explosion that killed hundreds, the Army takes notice. But when easy-going Brent turns somber and studious, focused and cold, Kim O'Donnell, Brent's best friend, wonders what's gotten into him. With an Army field trial imminent and the company's future at stake, possible nanotech side effects aren't something anyone wants to discuss. But Kim's right. Something has gotten into Brent - and he isn't the only one changing.

I don’t read many science fiction books but I read this for my book group. It had a lot of interesting technical information in the first half of the book. At times, a bit too much for me but the second half had a lot of action and really drew me in. I liked Brent, Kim and the doctor who helped Kim figure out what was going on. This was a good techno-thriller and I enjoyed it. ( )

Twas a good action adventure, bit of a let down in some ways... It did consider in the plot some of the pros and cons of personnal incorporating nano tech from both the individual's point of view while still showing most of the big picture. ( )
