Add a CommentIn many ways this book fits into the generic genetic engineering category, but with a really strong, almost detective type narrative this book subtly develops the themes of bio-ethics with a light touch. This book is a nice introduction to fantasy/ sci-fi, especially for women. You'll never look at clouds and weather patterns in the same way again :). Enjoyable and addictive.
