If you're into science, DON'T READ!A novel in the sciencefiction genre, but far more fiction than science. Apart from a small plot thread there is a bare minimum of suspense, so the book heavily leans on its genetic semi-scientific sauce to keep you interested. And, if you have a background (or interest) in biology, genetics, ethics, philosophy, psychology or science, the amount of unfounded rediculous claims in this book is going to make you cringe. Not in a cheeky sciencefiction way, but like the author has no knowledge of, or feeling for any of the mentioned fields.

Heel goed boek, erg van genoten en heel verrassend en heel spannend. Je moet er niet te veel bij nadenken dat dit genetische gerommel waarheid wordt.. Vind het zeker wel een aanrader. Goed voorgelezen ook, alleen die imitatie kinderstemmetjes vond zeer irritant. Voegt niets toeven stoort alleen maar. Maar verder beslist een aanrader.
