That is a science fiction story with made up technobabble nonsense. Honestly I couldn't finish the book--for a variety or reasons, not least of which that the characters were cardboard cutouts and completely non compelling. But also the physics and technology in the book were nonsensical. More like science-free fantasy than science fiction. But I digress.

No, nanotechnology is nothing like that.



I am working on nanotechnology just like from the book.Stay tuned


Well, good luck. My startup is also pursuing diamondoid nanomechanical technology, which is what I understand the book to have. But the application of it in this and other sci-fi books is nonsensical, based on the rules of fiction not reality.
