"OMNIPOTENT 2" picks up where "Omnipotent 1" left off. At the opening of our story, the Gauntlet is secure once again in government hands but able to flex incredible power when introduced into any Theatre of War or Battle Space. Globally, nations search in vain to develop similar weapons systems and the threat of North America having unlimited power in the form of Gauntlet proves too much for some. Dr. Paul Stewart is once again thrust reluctantly into the limelight as he and fellow scientists try to prevent chaos from reigning supreme as potential foes conceive, contrive, and put into action an outlandish plot to defy the allies. Ian McLean once again takes readers through a story line which masterfully explores the human side of technological innovation in the face of global conflict. As this plot unfolds, readers will join in an emotional journey of those intertwined with the existence of the Gauntlet. Ian McLean's narrative prowess shines as he crafts a tale that examines the allure of power, the ethical implications of advanced technology, and the unforeseen consequences that come with playing god on the battlefield.
