Hot Wheels
Today, tax advantages go to the ultrarich. How does our society go from massive income inequality to a socialist democracy?
“Hot Wheels: Cool Assassins 2” examines the transition between rich & poor versus equal pay for equal work. A true meritocracy. Scratch corporations and you have cooperatives.
But socioeconomics is boring, so the narrative feature two extraordinary female martial artists, high-speed chases and clever attacks on the world’s most powerful CEOs.
A small group of humans have colonized outer space, built solar-power platforms in high orbit that empower 35% of the global grid. They have developed a society where women get equal pay for doing the same work as men, and women get three-month paid sabbaticals whenever they choose to become pregnant.
It’s fifty years into the future: 2076. Most places on earth worship money, fossil fuels and oppression of the poor. Whereas spacers have evolved a cooperative society that’s fair and friendly. Open the pages and see for yourself.
What readers say about the book🧐
This novel brings some rare and interesting perspectives to my expectation as an avid reader; the setting and characterization are as sweet as I have previously imagined before reading it. A private, elite security outfit known as “Dog Breakfast” confronts a group of powerful oligarchs who are cruel and lacking restraints. Two prominent female agents of Dog Breakfast, Jen and JoAnna escape being captured on duty after they have disrupted the meeting of the oligarchs. Jen makes off with a paraglider while Jen disappears in a Humvee. Angry, the oligarchs and their agents unleash their terror on bystanders, killing them. The tempo that begins on the first page of this novel is beautifully sustained unto the last page. Quite an interesting read.

About the Author →
J. O. Quantaman
I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I drove a taxicab in the city for 27 years. I’m familiar with dealing with people, from crooks to celebrities. Before moving to Vancouver, I’ve traveled through nine of Canada’s ten Provinces. I’ve worked in factories, in crop fields, as a guide for sports fishers. I’ve attended three years of college and university.
___My hobbies are recreational mathematics and history, especially ancient history. I’m an avid hiker and cyclist. I read in the genres of historical fiction, science fiction, martial arts and police procedurals. Not surprisingly, I write in the same genres. My strongest concern is for ecological woes that humans are creating, so I write of a future where my characters must deal with an out-of-contrl climate, where extreme weather events have grown common.
___I’ve published three books of the Cool Assassins series: “Woke”, “Hot Wheels” & “Afterlife”. More are on the way. Get to know my likeable characters. You won’t regret it.
