Public Law 10927 was clear and direct. Parents were permitted to watch the genetic alterations of their gametes by skilled surgeons...only no one ever requested it. When Lizbeth and Harvey Durant decided to invoke the Law, when Dr. Potter did not rearrange the most unusual genetic structure of their future son, barely an embryo growing in the State's special vat---the consequences of these decisions threatened to be catastrophic. For never before had anyone dared defy the Rulers' decrees...and if They found out, it was well known that the price of disobedience was the extermination of the human race.

First Scott Brick is an excellent narrator. Though Frank Herbert fails to deliver a compelling story (again). The setup is amazing- futuristic setting of super-humans controlling the genetic make-up of the "regular folk." What will humanity do? But then the story just doesn't deliver. And in the final act you get a ridiculous 'deus ex machina' which doesn't make any sense, although tries to be some profound reflection on the human condition.

I've read/listened to other books by Herbert (outside of Dune series) and I'm always disappointed by the endings. I want him to be an Isaac Asimov or Robert A. Heinlein, offering some deeper insight into the world, but sadly he is not.

Great setup, disappointing story

Frank Herbert has more ideas to express in under 200 pages than most authors could come up with in an entire book series spanning 10 or more volumes. I feel like what this story really comes down to, among other things, is that lifelong struggle against boredom. Regardless of how long that life may last. Something Herbert touched on more in the God Emperor’s story arch in Dune. Actually a lot of what’s in this story carried over to Dune eventually. Amazing science fiction from Herbert and far ahead of his contemporaries, as usual.

More In So Few Pages Than Most Entire Book Series Contain!
