Blood Music

byGreg Bear, George Guidall

Genres: Science Fiction Space Exploration Speculative Evolution

Who is this book for? Readers interested in science fiction, particularly those who enjoy themes of technological advancements and ethical dilemmas.

Topics Technology and HumanitySurvivalIdentity

MoodSuspenseful

ViolenceMild

In the tradition of the greatest cyberpunk novels, Blood Music explores the imminent destruction of mankind and the fear of mass destruction by technological advancements. Blood Music follows present-day events in which the fears concerning the nuclear annihilation of the world subsided after the Cold War and the fear of chemical warfare spilled over into the empty void of nuclear fear. An amazing breakthrough in genetic engineering made by Vergil Ulam is considered too dangerous for further research, but rather than destroy his work, he injects himself with his creation and walks out of his lab, unaware of just quite how his actions will change the world. Author Greg Bear's treatment of the traditional tale of scientific hubris is both suspenseful and a compelling portrait of a new intelligence emerging amongst us, irrevocably changing our world.
