"The Cattle" by Greg M Sarwa
Mitch
I would like to present to you a terrifying story written by Greg M.
Sarwa entitled "The Cattle".
In his book, Mr. Sarwa presents one logical progression in the
evolution of a National Identification System in the United States: the
implanting of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) microchips in
American citizens and all visitors. In the book, this natural
evolution toward a Utopian society free from fears of terrorism is
perverted by an elite governmental agency with a shadowy agenda. It is
a fast-paced and terrifyingly realistic extrapolation based on
technologies that are in development or already exist. Though based on
a plausible future, the most shocking revelations advanced in The
Cattle do not focus on technology but, instead, on the strengths and
weaknesses of the human spirit. Disbelief, confusion, curiosity, fear,
trust, confidence, hope-all, and more, surface as the characters
approach the final conflict. Readers will easily identify with the
emotions and motivations of the heroes. In contrast, readers will
loathe the villains. All the while, they will find themselves swept up
in an urgent and deadly race to expose the heinous truth.

population... gives too much control over their own fortunes to the
government." Sue Nussbaum
