Life in the year 2030 was almost perfect. War, crime, hunger and pollution were history. Scientists were on the verge of curing disease when people all over the world started getting sick, and no one knew why. Nanoswarm is based on an action-packed video game that takes tweens on a journey of self-discovery to save a friend — and themselves. Funded by the National Institutes of Health.
"A smart, imaginative ride into the future where life hangs in the balance of diet and exercise."
