A New York Times and USA Today bestseller!
The #1 bestselling Kindle book for an entire year in two major categories: technothrillers and science fiction.
“Richards is a worthy successor to Michael Crichton.” –Antony Jones, SFBook.com
Kira Miller is a brilliant genetic engineer who discovers how to temporarily achieve savant-like capabilities in all areas of thought and creativity. But what … creativity. But what if this transcendent level of intelligence brings with it a ruthless megalomania?
David Desh left the special forces after his team was brutally butchered in Iran. Now he has been reactivated for one last mission: find Kira Miller, the enigmatic genius behind a bioterror plot that threatens millions. But when Desh learns that the bioterror plot is just the tip of the iceberg, he is thrust into a byzantine maze of deception and intrigue, and he becomes a key player in a deadly game he can’t begin to understand. A game that is certain to have a dramatic impact on the future course of human history. . .
WIRED is a smart thriller crammed with breakneck action, unexpected twists, mind-expanding science, and intriguing concepts readers will be contemplating long after they’ve read the last page.
“Richards is a tremendous new talent.” –Stephen Coonts, 17-time New York Times bestselling author of Pirate Alley

Really a fast paced page turner. Hard to put down and great to curl up and enjoy anytime. Any of Douglas E. Richards books are incredible.
I have read science fiction for over 70 years and this is one of the best I’ve ever read! This author never disappoints.
Douglas E Richards never disappoints!
All of his books are thrillers that grab the reader and are always well researched. The books mix current technology with the author’s mind blowing ability to imagine the future of that technology.
This is a fantastic book and my first experience with Douglas Richards. I since have read over 15 of his books and have never been disappointed.
More than a 4 less than a 5. A very compelling, twist filled , sci-fi-ish, action packed novel about a guy who exponetionally increases his knowledge in all areas and the havoc such ability can wreak. It’s a real page turner, you do have to suspend some beliefs, but it’s a fun read
Another great book from Mr. Pierce!
Very predictable and too long to arrive at ending which was telegraphed 100 pages before it happened
What did I think of this book? Not much.
It was entertaining but that is about it
It was interesting but not very realistic or believable.
Not my normal go to genre for reading, science fiction. But hard enough who done it to keep me turning pages. I really enjoyed.
Read like a Tom Clancy novel. Enjoyed it immensely
Best book I have read this year. Very interesting and believable. Just a matter of
Years before its common knowledge how amazing our bodies become.
Fun to read, new ideas and entertaining.
So much description, what-ifs, explanations, projections. This should have gone into an actual plot.
Good pace of action. Premise was a little too far out for me but should appeal to sci-fi fans.
4,680 amazon reviews. 14,000 Goodreads reviews.
I loved this book.
A young brilliant female scientist and an ex-Green Beret are trying to save the world. I can’t tell you the things that I want to, because it would be a spoiler and take some surprises away.
If you like thinking big, and exploring big issues you will like this book. Yes, it has …
This was a fantastic book! It was fast-paced with lots of twists and turns. The subject was interesting and surely is a prediction of the future. Although it has an ending and is not a cliff-hanger, there is another book after it that I am absolutely going to read. I highly recommend this book.
An action pack book that you can’t put down. I gave it 5 stars. I would highly recommend this book to mystery lovers.
Brilliant!
