YA
Teens Sadie and Noah are recruited into the battle of nature versus technology, as the deranged Armstrong twins seek world dominion by manipulating people's brains with nanotechnological robots. The guerrilla organization BZRK fights back with biots that get "down in the meat"--but at the risk of the host’s sanity. The book is all plot-driven action with terse, gory prose, including imaginative descriptions of the human body up-close.
