Synopsis
In the Nevada desert, an experiment has gone horribly wrong. A cloud of nanoparticles--micro-robots--has escaped from the laboratory. This cloud is self-sustaining and self-reproducing. It is intelligent and learns from experience. For all practical purposes, it is alive. It has been programmed as a predator. It is evolving swiftly, becoming more deadly with each passing hour. Every attempt to destroy it has failed. And we are the prey. As fresh as today's headlines, Michael Crichton'smost compelling novel yet tells the story of a mechanical plague and the desperate efforts of a handful of scientists to stop it. Drawing on up-to-the-minute scientific fact, Prey takes us into the emerging realms of nanotechnology and artificial distributed intelligence--in a story of breathtaking suspense. Prey is a novel you can't put down. Because time is running out.

    This seller is the absolute best out there. He went over and beyond expectations to accommodate as the items were listed as pick up. He communicated very clearly exactly what was going on with the delivery of my items until I received them and yes they were just as described. If I could give 20 stars, I would!!!! Thanks for a great transaction!!!!!!

    This is the second of two purchases from this seller! Seller is FANTASTIC and goes beyond the customary dealing to satisfy his customer. Great communicator and a pleasure to deal with. Provides follow-up assistance if required and offers quite a large variety of goods/products. I highly recommend him, and I will maintain contact for various and new arrivals.

    Best packaging I’ve ever seen, fast shipping. Item has a large chip which was not mentioned in the original listing. I did not look at every picture, which was my fault. The flaw should have been mentioned in the listing for those of us who tend to not look at every photo, though, in my opinion. I’m still happy with my purchase. The plate is very pretty. Thank you!
