About Swarm Rising

When Danny is kidnapped by Adi – who can run through brick walls and make cars drive on water – he realises that all humans are in danger. Adi is part of a super-advanced hive mind, the Swarm, which intends to protect the Earth from the environmental catastrophe caused by the human race.

Adi – Alien Digital Intelligence in the form of a girl – can bend the laws of physics and control digital data, but as a digital being she wants to know what it’s like to be human. Which is where Danny comes in.

But what exactly is the ‘help’ the secretive Swarm is offering? Can Danny and his friend Jamila help Adi stop the Swarm Agents and give humanity a second chance?

About Swarm Enemy

When Danny’s best friend Jamila goes missing, and no one remembers she exists, Danny knows the alien Swarm are back on Earth. They’ve tracked the digital energy signals Jamila has been unintentionally transmitting. Her alien-enhanced DNA can be used to clone super-strong beings with super-powers, and now it’s not just the Swarm who are after her. Danny needs to find Jamila – and a new version of Adi, the friendly Swarm scout – and together they must stop both humans and aliens from destroying the human race.
