"Nothing links person to person like the frequent passage from hand to hand of a good book."

I've had this book on my shelf for a few years, waiting for my attention. Now I've finally read it.

This was a fairly dense read, but I don't mind density when it is about science. This story is about genetic modification and a bacteria genome that is discovered on Mars. There's some political intrigue as well as some ideology about how scientific research should be conducted. I enjoyed the main character and the author's view of what the future might look like. It was written in the early 2000's and takes place about 2028, so not too far distant from now.

A wandering book -- the karma of literature!

I left this book in the Little Free Library up the hill on Sage View. Enjoy!

Bookcrossing is the practice of leaving a book in a public place for someone else to "catch". Why? Cuz books just wanna have fun! Enjoy the serendipity and head over to the bookcrossing.com website to let me know you caught this book!

Bookcrossing is family-friendly and a great hobby 😀
