WHAT IF THE MILLENNIALS WENT ON STRIKE AND SHUT DOWN THE INTERNET AND DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE? THIS IS THE EPIC STORY AND WARNING OF ARCHIMEDES SLAKED. In the second volume of the Archimedes Slaked trilogy, media and internet demagogues Topher Blue and Mercy Green continue their extreme polarizing ideological campaigns while the economy collapses into depression with countless businesses and institutions failing. Social unrest, food riots, and lawlessness devastate the country. Technology workers in key industries recognize their collective power and demand huge extortion payments to avoid work slow-downs and strikes, while the cyber terrorist immobilizes technology applications in key industries seemingly at will. The government, now controlled by extreme, corrupt elements, and battling unrest and state secession movements, attacks the strikers and searches frantically and brutally for the cyber terrorist, turning their sights upon Neera Solai and Abriado Centeri who believe the revolutionary and forbidden technology is within their grasp. Centeri's man-made island, New Eden, nears completion but its purpose remains shrouded in mystery, even to Neera Solai. In this epic, philosophical techno-thriller, H. Scott Sturm shines a light on the potential horrors of political and ideological extremism and cyber terrorism, and how the wonders of the digital technology age may fuel the destruction or heal a world gone mad.
