One Jump Ahead by Mark L. Van Name PDF Summary

Book Description: TWO WOLVES IN A GALAXY OF LARGER PREDATORS Jon Moore: nanotech-enhanced solider-of-fortune. Battlewagon Lobo: A.I.-equipped intelligence and weapons platform (think: a fortress on wheels) of enormous destructive potential. Two very dangerous wolves in a galaxy of deadly corporate and paramilitary predators. But Moore has grown weary of the killing and just once he'd like to finish a job without leaving a trail of blood behind him. Not going to happen. Not on a pristine planet called Macken, where two gigantic corporations vie for control of the local jump gate and access to the riches of an undeveloped world. Dealing with a kidnapping and extortion scheme is only the beginning for Moore and Lobo. Next they must survive an enormous bounty placed on Moore's head long enough to rescue yet again the young woman they accidentally delivered into the wrong hands. But with the help of an old lover and under-the-table support from the mercenary outfit that made him, Moore just might beat the odds, save the girl, and get out of this one a little richer and one step closer to making it back to the strange world of his origin. One Jump Ahead: the first novel in the Jon & Lobo series At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). "Just when I was thinking science fiction might be over, Mark Van Name proves that there are still smart, exciting, emotional sci-fi stories to be told. " ¾Orson Scott Card "Holy Squidlets, Batman! One Jump Ahead is like well-aged white lightning: it goes down smooth then delivers a kick that knocks you on the floor. I want to kidnap Mark Van Name and steal his brain. I also want an illegal, souped-up racing ray. Mark's going to be the guy to beat in the race to the top of SFdom." ¾John Ringo "Hard real science smoothly blended into action that blazes like a pinball from one exotic setting to another. This one is very, very good." ¾David Drake "One Jump Ahead is the sort of¾dare I say it ¾old-fashioned SF adventure tale that I dote on. Mark Van Name's headlong pace of story-telling reminds me a lot of Keith Laumer, in fact. He's one of the very few modern authors I've seen who can manage that." ¾Eric Flint "One Jump Ahead is alive with fast-paced action, wild ideas, and characters to root for. A joy to read." ¾Jack McDevitt
