In 2033, a pandemic with its origins in biotechnology annihilates most of Earth's population and destroys the underpinnings of human culture. In its wake, the rise of shamanistic magic divides humans into three races: True Humans, shapeshifting Werefolk, and genetically engineered Merfolk. Three decades later, descendants of the three groups come together to discover the shocking truths behind the great change and to try to form a new future for their suffering world. The author of Lightpaths demonstrates his considerable talent for blending philosophical and scientific speculation with memorable characters. This thoughtful and surprising tale of transformation and reclamation belongs in most sf collections.
