"Allotropes" is the eighth in a series of near future SciFi/Thrillers whose young
heroine Ell Donsaii has a nerve mutation which has made her a genius as well as an athletic phenomenon.
In "Allotropes," she finds even more uses for the quantum entangled wormholes that she discovered. These wormholes aren't big enough to send people through, yet they make possible technologies that create huge changes in our world. She installs some ports in her own body that she is able to use as weapons, delivering darts and drugs to stop her adversaries.
Having earned gold medals in gymnastics in previous Olympics, she is challenged to enter track meets by world record holding sprinter Michael Fentis who's angry that some have said she can run faster than he can.
Meanwhile, one of her waldoes is exploring the ringworld she discovered at Sigma Draconis. The aliens there are doing surprising things with carbon allotropes! Can we learn to do the same?
Genre: Science Fiction
