About this title
It's 2110 and Creid Xerkler, the creator of the Molecular Advantage Machine - a virtual system that facilitates instantaneous access to all of humanity's knowledge and experience - is unwillingly entangled in a government Council plot to prove the existence of an illegally engineered race called the Imagofas.
Unfortunately Xerkler knows more than he should and fears what the Council might discover.
The Imagofas are revered by many as the next step in human evolution - a nano-DNA hybrid: part human, part machine - but to the Council they are a dangerous aberration and a threat to the very existence of humankind.
In their quest to prove this crime against humanity, the Council plans on abducting specimens from the Order sanctioned research facility on Mars.
When the kidnapping takes an unexpected turn and the Imagofas are forced to become fugitives, the Council vows to destroy them - while others plan to capitalize on their existence.
The Imagofas, in a determined bid to return to Mars, must draw upon their still developing and unique skills to survive the dangers of Earth.
Along the way, they are helped by three unexpected and unlikely heroes: the Cadet, a hard core gamer; Ochbo, a cleanlife pervert; and Prometheus, an enlightenment-seeking MAMintelligence, who, while on his own secret quest, ultimately holds the answers to everyone's survival.
To speed up human evolution, the Order had covertly engineered a new generation of human Nano-DNA beings and dubbed them the Imagofas. Created against the government’s dictates, the government wants proof of the Order’s illegal activity. Two of the Imagofas, Sashimu and her best friend Thesni, are kidnapped and brought back to Earth to stand before a tribunal as evidence of the Order's atrocities against humanity.
But, during the trip from Mars to Earth, something goes horribly wrong and the kidnapped Imagofas are forced to become fugitives. Separated from each other, Sashimu and Thesni desperately seek the help of strangers to escape Earth’s hostile environment.
Along the way they enlist the help of a hard-core gamer known only as the Cadet and befriend the renegade artificial intelligence code-named Prometheus.
The Imagofas will risk everything to escape Earth for Mars. They are, after all, wanted by the government and by the Order — DEAD OR ALIVE!
