With Gaia’s Toys, Ore takes us on a riveting journey to a dark and brooding american future. It’s a wicked, dystopic disneyland:* Where gene restructuring is the norm and everyone’s plugged into their computers (which is where the authorities want them)* Where if you don’t have a job, your only option is to become a welfare drone, your head in the military cyberspace... and your memory a thing of the past* Where saving endangered species in micro-eco bubbles has become a fad with intellectuals and the wealthy, but children go hungry in the streets.And where a group of eco-terrorists have banded together to stop the creation of an insidious new genetic mutation—a weapon that the government will use to rob Americans of their last scrap of freedomGaia’s Toys is a knife-edged trip twenty minutes into the future, a fast-paced science fiction thriller as possible as tomorrow s headlines.“Rebecca ore is one of those rare talents who can combine brilliantly innovative scientific thinking with evocative, soul-searching fiction. She belongs among those top dozen practitioners of today’s science fiction.”—Ben BovaA finalist for the John W.
