Many thanks to NetGalley, Random House Publishing Group Ballantine Books for gifting me a digital ARC of the latest sci-fi thriller by the one and only, Blake Crouch - 5 stars!
In the future, humankind is struggling in the new world, caused by a combination of climate change and gene modification. Logan Ramsay works for the GPA (Gene Protection Agency). His plan of being a scientist was squashed when his mother unleashed a gene modification that caused devastation. Because Logan worked with her, he ended up in prison. In his new job, he apprehends those seeking to do dangerous genetic work. On his last job, he is hit with an explosion that caused an upgrade to him - he is now capable of amazing intellectual and physical strength. So much so that he becomes a target himself. But the real target is still out there and Logan is on the hunt.
I'm not a huge sci-fan fan, but this is Blake Crouch! His books are so amazing that they are absolute must reads for me. I don't know how his brain works - he definitely got an upgrade at some point - because each book takes you on a different path that immerses you in some new science while taking you on a thrill ride with lots of heart as well. This book will make you think and think hard - what have we done to our planet and species and can we right that ship without destroying ourselves? Do the ends justify the means? This book is highly recommended - don't miss it!
