FREE: DARWIN'S CHILDREN by Greg Bear

The listing, DARWIN'S CHILDREN by Greg Bear has ended.

This is a hardback book and is in good shape, the dust jacket does show slight wear.

Darwin's Children: Eleven years have passed since SHEVA, an ancient retrovirus, was discovered in human DNA - a retrovirus that caused mutations in the human genome and heralded the arrival of a new wave of genetically enhanced humans. Now these changed children have reached adolescence ... and face a world that is outraged about their very existence. For these special youths, possessed of remarkable advanced development, are also ticking time bombs harboring hosts of viruses that could exterminate the "old" human race.
Fear and hatred of the virus children have made them a persecuted underclass, quarantined by the government in special "schools," targeted by federal sanctioned bounty hunters, and demonized by hysterical segments of the population. But pockets of resistance have formed among those opposed to treating the children like dangerous diseases - and who fear the worst if the government's draconian measures are carried to their extreme.

A very interesting book, thanks for looking and as always FREE SHIPPING!
