Science Fiction
In this sequel to Silhouette, Michael Ares must survive a
series of assassination attempts to find out why he was
destined to become one of the most powerful men on the planet In the near future, a post-quake San Francisco is ruled by a
private corporation called the Bay Area Security Service.
BASS has established and maintained order in this new
city-state with a police force of "peacers" who have a
license to kill, and the company has developed a
cutting-edge antigravity technology coveted by the rest of
the world. Michael Ares has recently inherited the throne of
BASS, and immediately finds himself marked for assassination
by an even more powerful leader, the Chinese general Zhang Sun. Michael doesn't understand why he was chosen to play this
important role, nor does he know why Sun is so determined to
see him dead. But to find out, he will first have to survive
not just one attempt on his life, but an unrelenting barrage
that has never failed to end in the death of the target. His
only hope is to entrust his fate to an old friend whose
company provides personal high-tech protection that is
almost as impressive as the forces arrayed against him. A future world of aerocars, net glasses, and neural
cyberware provides the backdrop for this timeless tale of
good and evil, love and revenge, truth and mystery. Dave
Swavely's Kaleidocide is filled with a kaleidoscope of
colorful characters and thrilling action that will make
readers' hearts pound and minds race at the same time.
