Nano Contestant Series by Leif Sterling (#2-4)
Requirements: EPUB, MOBI Reader | 1.64 MB
Overview: Leif Sterling has always had a rich imagination and an eccentricity for all things technical. He read every door-stoppingly, thick computer manual that he could get his hands on from the time he was twelve on. Not surprisingly, college yielded bachelors and masters degrees in IT for him, which has come in handy when describing futuristic nano systems that haven’t been invented yet.
Genre: Science Fiction & Fantasy
Ultimate Endurance (#2)
Extreme times call for extreme measures.
Only 48 of the 1,000 entrants will be allowed to move forward into the Tech Games as a contestant. Becoming a contestant is Roland’s only chance to get close enough to the Pinnacle Corporation to uncover the evidence needed to clear his father’s name and save him from death by incineration.
Roland has trained hard, but will it be enough? His resolve to become a Tech Games contestant is tested over a double marathon of the 5 most difficult terrains known to man. He must survive sheer rock cliffs, jumping off towering waterfalls, racing down an erupting volcano, fighting through blinding sandstorms and using parkour style freerunning to clear urban obstacles.
More brutal than the terrain are other racers. Willing to kill to qualify, the other contestants use martial arts, grappling (or just plain murder) to gain a position during this 52.4 mile endurance run. Contestants will use every bit of their technology to gain an advantage. Android arms for strength, cyborg legs for speed and digitized DNA for healing apps. Roland must use his new nanotech to survive and compete for one of the coveted Tech Games positions.
Will Roland’s untested nanotech be enough to be one of the 48 that crosses the Tech Games finish line? He must push himself passed what he thought was possible for a chance to save his dad.
Combat Obstacles (#3)
Game One of the Tech Games is pushing the limits of even extra-human capabilities. Roland must face the longest and most dangerous obstacle course in existence, if he wants a chance at uncovering evidence against the ruthless Pinnacle Corporation to save his father.
With 20 story rope climbs, 70 mph escalators, 100 foot free dives, and a strongman event, will Roland’s homegrown nanotech be able to keep up with the other cutting edge contestants? Roland and his tiny team will have to dig deeper than they ever thought possible as they try to find solutions on the fly for overcoming these harrowing obstacles.
Weapons are authorized! Episode 3 adds another method for the contestants to dish out even more brutal punishments than before: futuristic weapons. Roland unleashes his carbon alloy weapon, using his mind to uniquely shape it for every situation.
There’s more than just the race! Skylar’s latest plugin puts Roland undercover in Pinnacle’s most secure facility. One false move on this clandestine operation will most certainly put Roland in a small cell with Pinnacle only too happy to throw away the key.
Arctic Survival (#4)
Arctic temperatures are a refiner’s fire for convictions, leaving behind fortitude rarely seen in this world.
Roland’s secret agenda may be exposed when he is forcefully taken by Pinnacle’s security team. If he can endure their interrogation, then he will have to survive whatever Pinnacle throws at him next. Pinnacle will push the limits of the extra-human abilities of the Tech Games contestants to their absolute breaking points with a 500 mile ultra marathon in the Arctic. By modeling their newest punishing race course after the upper icefields of the Yukon Territory, they can achieve constant subzero temperatures during the day and a staggering -85 °F at nightfall. Cold enough to freeze any cyborg metal! With no cold weather training, Roland’s tiny team must find an outside adviser, fast. Roland’s utter survival will depend heavily on a local Russian drunk, Ivan. Will the team be able to hold it together long enough to keep Roland alive?
