Sindicate - Paperback

by J. T. Nicholas (Author)

The Post-Modern Prometheus

Synths were manufactured to look human and perform physical labor, but they were still only machines. That's what the people who used--and abused--them believed, until the truth was revealed: Synths are independent, sentient beings. Now, the governments of the world must either recognize their human nature and grant them their rightful freedom, or brace for a revolution.

Former New Lyons Detective Jason Campbell has committed himself to the Synths' cause, willing to fight every army the human race marches against them. But they have an even greater enemy in Walton Biogenics, the syndicate behind the creation and distribution of the "artificial" humans. The company will stop at nothing to protect their secrets--and the near-mythological figure known to Synths as "The First," whose very existence threatens the balance of power across the world . . .

Praise for SINthetic

"Darkly engrossing, SINthetic shines a stark light on the age-old question, what does it mean to be human?"--Julie Kagawa, New York Times bestselling author

Author Biography

J.T. Nicholas was born in Lexington, Virginia, though within six months he moved (or was moved, rather) to Stuttgart, Germany. Thus began the long journey of the military brat, hopping from state to state and country to country until, at present, he has accumulated nearly thirty relocations. This experience taught him that, regardless of where one found oneself, people were largely the same. When not writing, Nick spends his time practicing a variety of martial arts, playing games (video, tabletop, and otherwise), and reading everything he can get his hands on. Nick currently resides in Louisville, Kentucky, with his wife, a pair of indifferent cats, a neurotic Papillion, and an Australian Shepherd who (rightly) believes he is in charge of the day-to-day affairs.
