Tek Net by William Shatner (English) Paperback Book

Description: Tek Net by William Shatner Private investigator Jake Cardigan and his partner, Sid Gomez, must race to save a woman trapped in the deadly crossfire of a violent war between rival TekLords William "Captain Kirk" Shatner of Star Trek fame returns with his ninth action-packed TekWar adventure, certain to thrill his devoted legions of science fiction readers. In the year 2122 an addictive new form of the fantasy-enabling electronic drug Tek is about to hit the market. This version, delivered to users over computer networks, would eliminate the need for Tek chips, thereby putting the old-school TekLords out of business. Jill Bernardino, the ex-wife of Sid Gomez, loyal partner of private eye Jake Cardigan, has been looking into this new development closely—a little too closely—and now finds herself in serious, possibly inescapable peril. Caught in the middle of a vicious international drug war, Jill is taken prisoner, and only Cardigan and Gomez can rescue her. But their efforts will put them directly in the crosshairs of warring squads of Tek-trade killers in a bloody cartel war. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography William Shatner (b. 1931) is a Canadian actor, author, and film director, known for his irreverent charm and his star turn as Captain Kirk in the original Star Trek television series, as well as many other roles. Born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, Shatner was cast in Star Trek as the courageous, unpredictable Captain James T. Kirk in 1966. The show became a cult hit in syndication, leading to a number of spin-offs and movies. Shatner starred in seven Star Trek films beginning with Star Trek: The Motion Picture in 1979. He later played leading roles on the television series T.J. Hooker (1982–86) and Boston Legal (2004–08). Shatner has also published a number of novels, most notably TekWar (1989), a science-fiction thriller that inspired eight sequels as well as video games and a television series. When he isnt working, Shatner and his wife, Elizabeth, divide their time between Southern California and Kentucky. Review "[Tek Net] features a splendidly slimy cast of villains, making its setting seem rather like Batmans Gotham City gone into orbit. One customarily gets . . . straightforward entertainment from a Tek series entry; this book provides more of the same, and that is surely no shame." —Booklist "[A] blend of Raymond Chandler and Philip K. Dick." —Publishers Weekly on Tek Power Review Quote "[ Tek Net ] features a splendidly slimy cast of villains, making its setting seem rather like Batmans Gotham City gone into orbit.
