Series: Nexus Arc
In the near future, the experimental nano-drug Nexus can link humans together, mind to mind. There are some who want to improve it. There are some who want to eradicate it. And there are others who just want to exploit it.

When a young scientist is caught improving Nexus, he's thrust over his head into a world of danger and international espionage - for there is far more at stake than anyone realizes. From the halls of academe to the halls of power, from the headquarters of an elite US agency in Washington DC to a secret lab beneath a top university in Shanghai, from the underground parties of San Francisco to the illegal biotech markets of Bangkok, from an international neuroscience conference to a remote monastery in the mountains of Thailand -  Nexus  is a thrill ride through a future on the brink of explosion.

Reviews for Nexus (#1 Nexus Saga)

An NPR Best Book of 2013 Good. Scary good. - Wired Provocative... A double-edged vision of the post-human. - The Wall Street Journal A lightning bolt of a novel, with a sense of awe missing from a lot of current fiction. - Ars Technica Starred Review. Naam turns in a stellar performance in his debut SF novel... What matters here is the remarkable scope and narrative power of the story. - Booklist A superbly plotted high-tension technothriller ... full of delicious, thoughtful moral ambiguity ... a hell of a read. - Cory Doctorow A gripping piece of near future speculation... all the grit and pace of the Bourne films. - Alastair Reynolds, author of Revelation Space A sharp, chilling look at our likely future. - Charles Stross, author of Singularity Sky and Halting State The most brilliant hard SF thriller I've read in years. Reminds me of Michael Crichton at his best. - Brenda Cooper, author of The Creative Fire A rich cast of characters...the action scenes are crisp, the glimpses of future tech and culture are mesmerizing. - Publishers Weekly
