Description
Heart, humour, action
and excitement
"Freedom Rider 4 - Chariot of Titan" joins, like almost all volumes of
"Freedom Rider", beautiful cars, including classic oldtimers,
with a nostalgic eighties feel and modern technology,
while being set in the present day of the 21st century.
"Freedom Rider" was inspired above all by the fascinating and abundant material of
"artificial intelligence", which is also being used more and more in everyday
life today, but also by the eighties cult series "Knight Rider",
with everything that made this series cool and in which an
"artificial intelligence", in the form of a car, also appeared.
Also at "Freedom Rider" is a modified, but newly built 1982 Trans Am,
which among other things has a neural, artificial intelligence,
albeit aloof without science fiction -
together with a humorous team, take center stage.
But "Freedom Rider" is, as always, much more. The fourth volume of the exciting
and challenging book series, with heart, humour, action, great car stunts, scientific facets,
tongue-in-cheek, heartwarming, sometimes a bit biting dialogues and the whole range of narrative skills,
once again comes up with a breathtaking story.
The eccentric millionaire, Don van Shirelain, succeeds in building the
plasma plane "Titan" and equipping it, among other things,
with C.I.C.C.'s (the Trans Am), modern but in the wrong hands,
also dangerous technology. "Titan" will challenge Logan and C.I.C.C. in a
murderous duel. In addition, the millionaire Shirelain is being creeped
out by the shady stranger T.C., who is obviously pursuing his own plans.
Furthermore, Logan still has to deal with a substance called "Hydro-Gel",
the South Seas, a school, a mysterious and ancient brotherhood,
a secret society and his personal nemesis, when a duel begins,
not only between "Titan" and "C.I.C.C."...
Conclusion: As always, Kathryn Knight again exploits all the nuances of her
extraordinary linguistic talent, her plastic storytelling, to create an entertaining, exciting tale
that stretches the boundaries of the old-fashioned, that is
intelligent, exciting, and different from old-fashioned literature.
In addition, there is a touch of not quite serious irony and the scientific aspects are
embedded in the story with a wink of the eye in a relaxed, light-hearted way!

About the author:
"Kathryn Knight" is the innocuous pseudonym of a young woman with a great enthusiasm for cars, for books, and for the magic of words.
She loves her dogs, her books and she loves to read. She also has a passion for American cars, especially classic old-timers. In her free time, she is also interested in classical antiquity, the contrast of which to modern technology and new technologies she also likes. Her books are characterized by unusualness and also the tendency towards adventurous suspense. Moreover, the whole range of her interests is delightedly realized in her books. All this springs from her flourishing imagination, which likes to reveal several facets and whose books make an extraordinary mixture.
In addition, her books are different from traditional literature, and especially the successful "Freedom Rider" book series follows the principle of "heart, humor and action" and is a novel series of a different kind, but with a whole range of interesting facets. In order to further protect the secret of her identity, the publisher does not include an author's photo. But this much can be revealed: Kathryn Knight's big dream is a black Pontiac Firebird Trans Am.
