Genesis 2.0 (Magic Circles)

Magic Circles is back with book 2 in the series.

A nanobot superorganism lays waste to the Earth. Is this the apocalypse? Or does the world's end harbor new beginnings? Life will always find a way. Though some ways are better than others. Evolution on steroids - the most significant development since inanimate matter first gave rise to life. You can't predict novel evolutionary developments, you recognize them only after they emerge.

Then you have to deal with them.

Praise for MOM, Book 1 in the Magic Circles Series:

"The extra-sensorial journey, the unspooling of the central mystery, and the story's moving climax are byyond mind-blowing"

        - Paul Dorsey, The Nation (Bangkok)

"[MOM] is a page-turner that contains all the right components for a smach movie... The Bard of Bangkok has really outdone himself this time. My strong hunch is that MOM is destined to attain classic status."

        - Bradley K. Martin, author of Under the Loving Care of the Fatherly Leader

"MOM is a big bang of a novel with many big ideas... Old Asia hands, sci-fi fans, and readers of quality fiction who enjoy complex and entertaining yarns should enjoy MOM."

        - Kevin Cummings, Thailand Footprint

"This book will take you on the craziest trip you've ever been on. And it will make you question everything."

        - Siobhan, reviewer at Novelties

"If you are looking for a book that will make you question everything - life, humanity, and Earth as we know it today - definitely pick up MOM by Collin Piprell."

        - Ellen, reviewer at Scribbles, Quibbles & Scrawlings
