Bookpool Exclusive Excerpt and Offer -- Stealing the Network: How to Own a Continent
Ready for a different sort of book? When a team of today's leading counter-terrorism
and IT experts get together to brainstorm on the technologies and hacks
that could be used to take over a continent, you know something interesting

together by downloading The Making of STC. This appendix gives you the actual

Fyodor, Thor, etc., exchange ideas, expertise and insider knowledge on 
their way to building the book.

And a t-shirt too!
Be one of the first 50 to order and we'll send you a free Stealing the Network
t-shirt ("call it 'fiction' if it helps you sleep better").
