Good book? I haven't read any decent sci-fi in awhile (last good one was re-reading John Scalzi's Old Man's War series) and I've been looking to read some more of the genre.

"The brain plague" by the same author is actually much better. The writing could use some help, but the ideas, oh my!

My personal bias as a biologist sure influences my perception of the book, of course.

Great! Thanks for the recommendation. I'll put it on my "to read" list.
