Liber 118 U.S. 394: The Battle Of Oakland by Paco Nathan

Description

Romualdo Mendieta has a fun life in the beautiful town of San Luis Obispo. He builds fantastic UAVs for search and rescue, then spends off-hours surfing or mountain biking through wine country. After his employer pivots into a defense contractor, Rom encounters a very different shadow world. On one hand, there's an organization of eccentric billionaires who have financed odd technologies for use at Burning Man, Maker Faire, and in subtle support of the Occupy protests. One the other hand, a religious right lobby called The Fellowship openly opposes democracy, and works as a kind of self-appointed police force for transnational corporations. Conflict ensues over hotly contested issues of corporate personhood, militarized police in metro areas, accusations of "domestic terror" by a corrupt Homeland Security Agency, all of which thrust many innocent people into a private prisons system bankrolled by Halliburton. At the heart of this story lies a centuries-old secret about ritual magick which the Elizabethans learned from the Aztecs. Take a look at the hidden story of transnational corporations... Because the world needs corporate theorists who aren't paid shills.
