Synopsis
In the Nevada desert, an experiment has gone horribly wrong. A cloud of nanoparticles--micro-robots--has escaped from the laboratory. This cloud is self-sustaining and self-reproducing. It is intelligent and learns from experience. For all practical purposes, it is alive. It has been programmed as a predator. It is evolving swiftly, becoming more deadly with each passing hour. Every attempt to destroy it has failed. And we are the prey. As fresh as today's headlines, Michael Crichton'smost compelling novel yet tells the story of a mechanical plague and the desperate efforts of a handful of scientists to stop it. Drawing on up-to-the-minute scientific fact, Prey takes us into the emerging realms of nanotechnology and artificial distributed intelligence--in a story of breathtaking suspense. Prey is a novel you can't put down. Because time is running out.

    Hard to put down

    I bought the book because on a blog on Telegram, a woman stated, "It could save your life". I don't know about that at all. I don't have handy access to a MRI machine and I don't do physicians/hospitals. But the book, despite the blasphemy against the Lord in verbiage and the unnecessary swearing, which was unnerving, it was compelling, hard to put down, I read it in a day. It gave me chills twice, worth the read.

    Love what you do

    I love what you do, donating to Hope4Harper, but please for future reference send your books with padding. The corners are bent from being dropped in transit. Overall I'm happy. :) thanks
