BOOK TRAILER
AMPED - 2012
By Daniel H. Wilson
Book Trailer created by Epipheo Studios

A cartoon about how to make super humans Super smart?

You are probably thinking of the book trailer from Epiphio Studios, AMPED. Written by Daniel H. Wilson, Amped is another tale in a proud tradition of naturally or artificially created superhumans that has been popular ever since Marvel Comics CAPTAIN AMERICA and X-MEN, and is currently enjoying a resurge through TV shows like HEROES, MISFITS, and ALPHAS.

Not to be confused with Douglas E. Richards' 2012 novel, AMPED.

D.E. Richards, AMPED

Reading Richards' novel doesn't count as reading Wilson's novel.

Best to buy both. Only way to be sure.

This was Daniel H. Wilson's follow-up novel after ROBOPOCALYPSE. Thanks to the wild success of Daniel's ROBOPOCALYPSE, AMPED was also an instant success. Daniel is riding the wave!

AMPED Interviews with Daniel are fading into Archive.

An Interview with Daniel H. Wilson, Author, 'Amped'
Roboticist and writer Daniel H. Wilson is the author of several books, including How to Survive A Robot Uprising, Robopocalypse and, most recently, Amped:

In Amped, people are implanted with a device that makes them capable of superhuman feats. The powerful technology has profound consequences for society, and soon a set of laws is passed that restricts the abilities—and rights—of "amplified" humans. On the day that the Supreme Court passes the first of these laws, twenty-nine-year-old Owen Gray joins the ranks of a new persecuted underclass known as "amps." Owen is forced to go on the run, desperate to reach an outpost in Oklahoma where, it is rumored, a group of the most enhanced amps may be about to change the world—or destroy it.
