Mage: the Ascension
Technocracy: N.W.O.
DO NOT READ THIS BOOK!
The dreaded Men in Black dog the steps of Tradition mages, kidnapping, interrogating, converting or removing any threat to the Greater Good. While the clumsy cyborgs of Iteration X blast their targets to atoms, the N.W.O. cuts down their enemies quietly and efficiently.
POSSESSION IS FORBIDDEN!
Technocracy: New World Order follows the methods, agents and history of this subtle Convention with an insider's perspective and host of tidbits for the Mage Storyteller. From paranoia to subversion, from mindwipes to betrayal, no tool is ignored. A safe reality, after all, is worth any price.
HAVE A NICE DAY.
Technocracy: New World Order includes:
*"Official" data: the lessons and observations of a Man in Black.
*Ready-to-use gadgets, agents, magickal "procedures" and a safehouse base.
*Tactics, Methodologies, and a labyrinthine glimpse into the Technocratic puppeteers.

This book fits into the cycle of first edition Technocracy books, and continues many of the trends that I dislike about early Mage. It depicts the New World Order, marking another Convention that is explicitly tied to the Nazis (through their "One World, One Truth, One Reality" slogan being similar to "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuhrer" as well as the Nazis speaking of a "New World Order" they would establish) and generally is fine for a purely antagonist oriented book, but is badly unsatisfying in the modern era with a complex Technocracy. It does have the advantage of pointing out some debates within the the Convention, and foresaw the somewhat "post-truth" era that we find ourselves in today.
Overall, it's a decent book, but best acquired in a bundle or in Technocracy Assembled, and not as essential as the longer, more detailed and more nuanced Revised book.
