ABOUT THE BOOK

The line between sanity and insanity is a thin one in BZRK, the intense, high-stakes, thrilling new series from national bestselling author Michael Grant. Conjoined twins Charles and Benjamin Armstrong own the multi-national coporation Nexus Humanus. They are conspiring to create their own version of utopia by controlling minds and sapping humanity’s free will through the use of nanotechnology. As they vie for world domination, BZRK, a group of teen guerilla hackers, tries to counteract their efforts with biots – organic nanobots fused with human DNA and controlled through the mind. The war for human minds is happening now and there are only two outcomes: victory or madness.
