Description
A Presidency under siege. A worldwide pandemic, followed by a global economic collapse. Is a happy ending even possible? Does real life emulate fiction? Or does fiction emulate real life? All five books of the BrainTrust examine topics ripped from today’s headlines: Pandemic, Global Economic Meltdown, Deportation. How closely will the world follow the BrainTrust script? Warning: Political satire included in this near-future hard sf techno-thriller. Please remember the Golden Question: How do you tell if a politician is lying? His lips are moving! Long ago, the President for Life expelled all foreign engineers from Silicon Valley. They moved to... The BrainTrust: A fleet of immense cruise liners jammed with teams seeking the next great breakthrough. A locus freed of bureaucracy and autocracy, a thorn in the side of every dirtside power. A home for creativity where no problem is unsolvable, but no crisis is as simple as it seems. A clean, well-lighted place for ... ferocious commando assaults, and desperate copter combat. The Heroines: Dash: the plucky mad scientist. Ping: the bouncy itty bitty ninja with the Real Big Gun. Jam: the quiet, resilient commando with the grace of a dancer. The Frightening Fact: A little too much of it is coming true. If you can’t laugh about your favorite politician, journey elsewhere. Otherwise, Come Aboard the BrainTrust. Every book a Prometheus Award nominee. If you like Robert Heinlein, Michael Crichton, Charles Stross, or Ayn Rand, buy your ticket and come aboard.
