A Provocative Bio-Engineering Sci-Fi Novel of Genetic Manipulation, Clones, and Human Evolution

In a near-future world reshaping itself through advanced biotechnology, two estranged brothers clash over the direction of human evolution. One brother leads a covert genetic lab dedicated to engineering a superior, post-human species immune to disease and physical aging, while the other defends natural human genetic heritage.

As genetically altered children—the Gamelon generation—exhibit unexpected psychic abilities and emotional shifts, societal panic erupts. Navigating ethical bio-engineering debates and corporate sabotage, both brothers must decide whether to embrace or eradicate the new post-human species.

Why You’ll Love This Book

John Willett delivers a thought-provoking speculative novel exploring genetics, human identity, and technological ethics. Essential reading for fans of Nancy Kress, Michael Crichton, and Greg Bear.
