3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of interesting biology, but..., 23 Jul 2003
This review is from: Vitals (Mass Market Paperback)
After reading Blood Music (the novel) and Darwin's Radio, I bought Vitals and thought I was going to have a good time reading interesting things about biology.
The book started well, and I was looking forward to learning the secret about stopping the aging process in humans. The thriller aspect was there as well (who is "programming" humans, and who is trying to keep the secret from Hal Cousins, and why?), until the story goes over the top, so to say.
It seems to me that the author had to many ideas he wanted to stuff in the book with too few pages to do it on.

The fact that there are two "I" persons telling the story is not confusing.. but it isn't exactly helpful for the plot, in my opinion.

If you haven't read anything from Bear, don't start with this one. Save it until later.
