Format:Paperback
This is the eighth thriller I've read in the last year and is definitely amongst the best of these. This really is a book that you won't be able to (or will want to) put down.

The story starts at break-neck speed and never really slows up, keeping you totally enthralled along the way. Based on a real technology that is currently being developed, there are many moral questions posed throughout the book and you will find yourself constantly wrestling to find your own solutions to these. Even days after finishing this book, I found myself both worried & excited about the potential of the technology described. There are also fascinating insights into factual occurrences and how they have been handled by the 'powers that be'.

In short, a great read with great characters and great plot that will give you plenty to think about. I would have rated this five stars, but some of the technical stuff did drag on maybe just a little too much. Do not be put off by this! If you could rate in half stars, I would have given this 4.5.

Brilliant, read it.

By Vman

A particular aspect which I liked was the level of tech-talk, the research was impeccable - JR Marlow certainly knows his stuff, best of all everything in Nano is plausible. The technology may seem a little far fetched at times but it really isn't. To my mind at least, everything is achieveable, maybe not now but sometime in the future.

The characters were interesting, you really get to know the lead male, John Marrek. I started to really feel for the man, as you will find out by reading.

The balance of tech/politics/ethical reasoning throughout ensured you were turning the pages late into the night. From the start the pace was set with an unexpeced event.

Overall; an entertaining read.

NANO - Great Book! 2 Jun 2006
Format:Paperback
I've almost finished this book and i'm very impressed with the authors view of the nano-future our race will ultimatly be lead into.

The moral issues are put in view simply and informativly. Nano technology is going to happen, its just when!

Great book. Look forward to future titles.
