Home Author Archive For Librarians Authors: Get Included Greg Bear Dear Reader, I do my best thinking when immersed in a novel, my method of understanding our world and the people in it. MARIPOSA takes the politics and technology of QUANTICO one step further—to the brink of an economic disaster set in motion by a super-powerful villain who's completely home-grown. QUANTICO's Rebecca Rose, hoping for retirement, peace and family, faces PTSD—post-traumatic stress disorder, the result of the violence she's experienced in her professional life. But along comes a cure, which turns into a very mixed blessing: the experimental Mariposa treatment may relieve her emotional distress—but may also convert her into something powerful, unpredictable, and very dangerous. And she's not alone... MARIPOSA is about an America weakened by fear and greed, facing a strange new world of nanotechnology, civil war, and universal surveillance. It's also about courage, survival, and shared humanity under the boot of history. I hope you enjoy it. -Greg Bear www.gregbear.com TOP OF PAGE BACK TO MAIN PAGE © 2005 by AuthorBuzz
