BOOK DESCRIPTION

When Stanley was born, life seemed perfect – at least until the day when he started to develop some strange habits and what some might call “super powers.”

Pulled from his life by tragedy and treachery, Stanley must survive in the world he finds himself in – a world where he becomes the subject of lab testing and learns to survive almost entirely on his own. At the same time, however, he finds one benefit amid the horror: the implants he is given allow him control over his powers.

Melding together a flair for the dramatic and a sense of the commonplace, author George Jack brings to life a society in need of a savior. That savior is “The Chip” Stanley’s super alter-ego. Aided by years of cybernetic research, Stanley (as The Chip) battles the villainous Dr. Powell and the beautiful, but deadly, Virus.

Set in the early 21st century, the story of The Chip reads more like a plausible biography than a work of science fiction. Of course, it is the biography of a young man with super powers and enhanced cybernetics. But no one is perfect.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Starting from his early childhood, George Jack had a love for science fiction stories. Whether someone was being beamed up to a spaceship, came from a galaxy far away or fought for truth and justice as a superhero, it got his attention. Merging this passion with an active imagination, he created a story of his own. This is his first book, but by no means his last. George presently lives in Brooklyn, New York.
