One world-altering technology. One power-hungry, secret society of elites. One boy destined to save the world or destroy it forever.

Samuel Bennet—heir to a multi-billion dollar tech empire—is caught up in the middle of a battle for the control of a revolutionary technology.

The technology is extraordinary—it’s humanity’s only hope at avoiding the complete degradation of society.

But it is also deadly.

And after Sam is kidnapped by an evil, secret brotherhood of elites hellbent on world domination, he is given thirty days to hand over the patents to his father’s ultra-powerful technology or he will be murdered.

Now Sam must face the greatest challenge of his life.

And in a battle for the future of the world that pits life against liberty and love against humanity, Sam has one chance to prevent the totalitarian group from establishing a new world order.

But winning may require sacrificing everything.

Michael Evans is not a new author to me because I’ve already read and reviewed his young adult dystopian novel about an authoritarian government Control Freakz. Thanks to Control Freakz, I didn’t hesitate to grab the first book Deadwave from his new Conspiracy Chronicles Series when it was available for pre-order on Amazon, though I still have to read the remaining books from the Control Freakz Series.

I don’t hide that I prefer a standalone novel over the series, but if other books in the Conspiracy Chronicles Series are as Deadwave, I’m all in for it! The core of the Deadwave story might be a virtual reality game infested with zombies, but it is also much more than that. It is the story built on interesting and strong characters who try to survive and fight for their future in a decaying society manipulated by an ultra-powerful group and the world succumbing under the heavy effects of environmental destruction.

As Deadwave sucked me into its virtual world and made me totally enjoy it, I feel obliged to say a few words about its author. Michael Evans is still just a kid at 17 (no offense, Michael!), but he is also a great man when it comes to writing and his understanding of the world. I urge everyone to read Author’s Note at the end of the book to see how great a visionary he is and in what spheres and universes his mind works.

Don’t judge a book by its cover is a saying that couldn’t be more appropriate in Michael’s case. Don’t judge Michael by his age because he is a living proof that age is just a number and that amazing achievements can be realized even before you cross the threshold of maturity if you dream big, work hard, have a vision, plan, determination, and courage to live your dream.

Remember Michael Evans, a boy with a lifelong mission and an advocate for a better future, and Michael Evans, a prolific author and gifted storyteller who creates an alternate universe with such ease like he is writing his homework. Respect!

Easy narrative to follow and even predict, but super addictive. It's been so long since a book made me procrastinate.
