Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Living lightning is the world's apex predator.It hunted technology to extinction and civilization went with it. Now it roosts atop its hunting grounds.Eliza Reyes does not know that yet. A field researcher with nowhere left to go, she accepts an invitation to a farmhouse full of impossible people who are, every one of them, human. There she meets a man celebrating his 200th birthday. The room weeps while the scientist diagnoses his senility.Centuries from her, on the Siberian Steppe, a sickly boy named Fen is carried to the Ring of Stones by parents who have been told he will not live. What the illness leaves behind is a bristling armor of ragged bone and an unbending conviction about how the world must be.Humanity was never one species. It is a set of experiments, still running. The world has changed before, it is changing now, and it will change again. All we have is choice.

For lovers of Children of Time and Cloud Atlas.
