Synopsis

2025 Edition: The Fuzed Trilogy is Bourne Identity meets Avatar and Interstellar.

USA TODAY bestseller and Eric Hoffer Award winner, this is a true story we hope never happens.

Preventing his burning fighter from hitting a neighborhood, he ejects too late.

A year later, he wakes up in a city hospital looking like an omni-racial Olympic athlete. His body wasn’t repaired ... it was replaced. He's GMO, a genetic blend of humanity's best genes, but with a voice in his head that tells him an extinction-level event is imminent.

This is a work of fiction, but the science behind it is not. Backed by a team of experts that include renowned astrophysicists, astronauts, admirals and intelligence operatives, these potentially cataclysmic events are inevitable but also preventable ... if we act. See the TED talk: How do we prevent our inevitable extinction?

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Dave Stevens was a Navy Commander and nuclear-weapons-trained fighter pilot. He served as the Strike Operations Officer for the Persian Gulf during the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. With a Top Secret clearance, he led classified defense programs, test-piloted new F-18 fighters and earned an aviation patent. He has been to over 30 countries, 10 miles above the earth, 600 feet below the Atlantic and survived hundreds of his own carrier landings. Dave holds engineering degrees from Cornell and the University of Michigan with graduate work in astrophysics and statistics. He uses an extensive network of subject matter experts — from astronauts and astrophysicists to intelligence operatives and Special Forces — to entertain and educate.
