Riassunto:

The year is 2099, and Earth is under siege from megacorporations, shadowy terrorist groups and those who seek to “save” mankind from its own mechanical sins.The corporations control almost every aspect of daily life: the power grid, the food and water supply, fashion trends, music, pop culture and — most importantly — the Net. In 2099 many organizations have learned that information is the last true weapon. It has become one of the most valuable commodities in the world. And everyone from the badlands to the cities wants to control it and use it (and you) to their own ends. In a world where all your movements can be tracked, will you align with those who seek to keep you oppressed but safe, or fight to create your own identity?The first book from the IDENTECO series tells three stories from the newly-created roleplaying game that seek to capture the danger and the wonder of this world from a new generation of cyberpunk storytellers.

Informazioni sull?autore: Benjamin Doolin lives in Tacoma, Washington with his wife, three daughters, two cats, one dog, a parakeet, a beta, a leopard gecko, and a tarantula. He is the boss of a flame-throwing robot and enjoys writing down the detailed lives of fictional psychopaths. Matt Harman has been an avid gamer since age 9, he cut his teeth on games like Chrono Trigger and the Final Fantasy series before graduating to pen and paper games. Over the years he has met many good friends in gaming and collected countless stories from their shared adventures. He draws his inspiration from Lovecraft’s weird stories, 30’s crime novellas, and modern influences such as Crime Dramas and Anime. When asked to join the IDENTECO Team, he jumped at the chance to contribute to the hobby that has given him so many good memories. Shawn Rourk is an award-winning sports journalist and designer from the deep South. He is currently transplanted in the Pacific Northwest along with his wife and daughter. He misses true Southern sweet tea everyday. Alex Wood lives in an old townhouse in Seattle with his wife, daughter and an 80 lbs ball of energy and fur that they think might be a dog. He has been in the past and remains (in no particular order), a gamer, a cranky old sergeant in the Army, writer and armchair philosopher.
