Nano Man 2 - E-book - ePub

Jane Macelvey, genetic and nanoengineer extraordinaire, settles into Humboldt County, California. Like so many people here, she's running from something. The region, once the pot growing capital of the world, producing the best sinsemilla on the planet, is now beleaguered thanks to the legalization of marijuana. The area is losing ground fast to corporations and big money interests. What was once a modest living is now an invitation to financial ruin.
Jane becomes Humboldt county's Sister Theresa. She swoops in with her gene makeover savvy and patents unique strains for each of the farmers in the area. She puts them back on the map, and single-handedly restores Humboldt's street cred as the premiere capital in the world for the best ganja. They love her. They'll do anything to protect her. This time, when the bad guys come, she's going to have a lot of friends between them and her.
And there's no shortage of former soldiers in the region-more specifically, special operatives and space marines. The latter know all too well the shock and awe the military-financial-industrial complex can bring with off-book futuristic combatants and forces that aren't even supposed to exist yet. The very forces that might be needed to get past her Nano Man. Jane's greatest ace in the hole remains the Nano Man himself.
While many nano-enhanced soldiers exist now, none are nearly at the cutting edge that her prototype is. That's why everyone wants to get their hands on him. And against the numbers they'll throw at him? Well, even army ants can bring down a camel, if there are enough of them. If that's not bad enough... Jane's in love with her Nano Man, and has no desire to see him subject to the kind of hell that's headed his way.
It's bad enough that they're already suffering PTSD from their former brushes with super-soldiers.***Nano Man 2 is a stand-alone novel, and does not require you read the previous novel, Nano Man, to enjoy it.
