Blending high-concept science fiction with the pace of a relentless thriller, the story follows a man whose genes have been secretly hacked, granting him extraordinary new abilities. As he grapples with what he has become, he uncovers a terrifying plot to re-engineer the whole of humanity. Intricately plotted and epic in scope, this is a novel that questions the very limits of what it means to be human.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLogan Ramsay works for the very agency created to contain the fallout of genetic engineering gone wrong, a legacy his own family helped unleash on the world decades earlier. When he begins to notice his concentration sharpening, his memory expanding, and his body somehow recovering faster and stronger than before, he realises the unthinkable: he has been upgraded. His genome has been altered, and he is becoming something other than human. As his abilities accelerate, so does his understanding of the forces behind it, a shadowy plan to replicate his transformation across the entire population, whether humanity consents or not. Torn between the people he loves and the terrifying potential of what he is becoming, Logan must decide how far he is willing to go to stop a war against human nature itself. Told with Crouch's signature blend of breakneck pacing, big ideas and emotional depth, Upgrade has drawn praise from major voices in thriller and science fiction writing, including Diana Gabaldon, Karin Slaughter, Veronica Roth and Andy Weir, who called it imaginative, perfectly paced, and extremely clever. It is a propulsive, thought-provoking read for fans of speculative fiction that asks hard questions about evolution, free will and what we owe to our own species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGripping, high-concept thriller from a #1 bestselling author\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for fans of Dark Matter, Recursion and smart speculative fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast-paced plotting combined with genuine scientific and philosophical depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePraised by bestselling authors including Diana Gabaldon and Andy Weir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback copy, ideal for gifting or collecting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBlake Crouch is a bestselling American novelist and screenwriter.
