I love this series--- everyone go out and buy it!!! or just go to the library!! :P ok... it's about a girl, gaia, who doesn't feel fear and she speaks all these languages, does martial arts, and doesn' trust anyone cuz her life is really screwed. She is sort of like a 17-year old Sydney.
here's an excerpt from #27, Shock (hope i'm not doing anything illegal here!):
"I think i have some information that may be of assistance in finding your father. But i need you to help me get to it. Are you opposed to a little breaking and entering?"
Now this was getting interesting. "NOt if it means getting more information about my father," she told him.
"that is good. YOur father trained you well."
"I guess so. what's the deal?" she asked him, impatient.
"I don't want to say on the phone," he said. "i've sent you instructions via e-mail. You can go retrieve them."
"why won't you just tell me?" she seethed.
"Too much to tell," he said. "Too many details. You need to see them and commit them to memory. You should know that this is how things are done in the Organization."
"yeah, but the organization should know that e-mail i never secure," she retorted.
"this one is. it's encoded and contains a self-destructing virus. It can only be read once.
"ok, fine"
LATER!!! hehe Gaia reads the e-mail.....
Gaia eyed the e-mail with total and complete concentration. She had a photgraphic memory. The image of the words seared into her frontal lobe as the distractions of the library fell away. There was something meditative about this action: The words became more than black and white on the screen; they took on a life of their own, the shapes of the letters forming patterns that Gaia recognized apart form the meaning of the words themselves. Wow, her brain was freaky sometimes.
A pensive haze settled over her for a moment. There was nothing but the words and the message they brought to her. Until a hand clamped over her eyes and the world went dark.
ok, did you like it???
that sounds really cool. maybe when i get time i'll check it out.
I only have the first one!!! ack!!! must go to library later...
there was going to be a show but now it's canceled...
