Produktinformationen zu „Amped “
Technology makes them superhuman. But mere mortals want them kept in their place. Enter a stunning world where technology and humanity clash in terrifying and surprising ways. Some people are implanted with upgrades that make them capable of superhuman feats. The powerful technology has profound consequences for society, and soon a set of laws is passed that restricts the abilities - and rights - of 'amplified' humans. On the day that the Supreme Court passes the first of these laws, 29-year-old Owen Gray discovers that his seizure-supressing medical implant is actually a powerful upgrade. Owen joins the ranks of a new persecuted underclass known as 'amps' and is forced to go on the run, desperate to reach an outpost in Oklahoma where, it is rumoured, a group of the most enhanced amps are about to change the world - or destroy it.

Autoren-Porträt von Daniel H. Wilson
Daniel H. Wilson wurde am 6. März 1978 in Tulsa, Oklahoma geboren oder vielleicht doch von Robotern unter die Menschen geschmuggelt: schon als Kind versuchte er, seinen Computer zum Sprechen zu bringen und verliebte sich in das Androidenmädchen einer Fernsehserie. Nach der High School studierte Daniel H. Wilson neben Informatik alles, was mit künstlicher Intelligenz zusammenhängt, bevor er 2005 am Institut für Robotertechnik in Pittsburgh den Doktortitel für Robotik erwarb. Neben Artikeln für das Popular Mechanics Magazine veröffentlicht er sehr erfolgreich Anleitungen, wie man einen Roboteraufstand überlebt. Daniel H. Wilson lebt heute in Portland, Oregon in den USA. Seine besten Freunde sind Werkzeuge und er arbeitet, wie er selbst betont, für die Mächte des Guten.
