Heart, humour, actionand 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 everydaylife 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 theplasma 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 amurderous duel. In addition, the millionaire Shirelain is being creepedout 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 herextraordinary linguistic talent, her plastic storytelling, to create an entertaining, exciting tale that stretches the boundaries of the old-fashioned, that isintelligent, exciting, and different from old-fashioned literature.In addition, there is a touch of not quite serious irony and the scientific aspects areembedded in the story with a wink of the eye in a relaxed, light-hearted way!
