| The animal attacks looked like random acts of terrorism. But to one cop, the coincidences were too much to ignore . . .In a future dominated by organic technology, houses, cars, and airplanes are bred, not built. But with organic technology comes organic risk. Like being eaten by an airplane.A mysterious rash of animal attacks has left the city reeling. Now it's up to one good cop to discover who, or what, is behind the carnage--because the next strike may hit too close to home.Author's notes:Despite the immense promise of genetic engineering, the media noise is currently dominated by protestors worried about imminent disaster to the environment, human health, and even rainfall patterns. The general public is terrified of what genetic engineering might do.But baby, you ain't seen nothin' yet!Genetic engineering is a technological infant, barely taking its first baby steps. Just wait till you see home genetic engineering kits-and a teenaged boy starts doing strange things with his mother's African violets! Watch for pumpkin houses and giant bean stalks straight out of Mother Goose, a garbage disposal that wants a career as a singer, and moving vans that fly through the air with the greatest of ease.All this is to be found in the five "organic future" novels, of which Sparrowhawk is the first. |
