Seed by Rob Ziegler
4.0
Being a Colorado resident, I'm lucky to share a state with a number of awesome sci-fi/fantasy authors. During a recent interview with Rob Ziegler on Machine Readable Podcast, I spoke with him about Seed.
Despite having misinterpreted the book as a zombie book, (I thought "post-humans" HAD to mean zombies rather than evolved superhumans) I really enjoyed Seed. Ziegler's mishmash of Spaghetti Western, eco-flavored science fiction, and military action proved to be as entertaining as something that's really entertaining. Multiple storylines coalesce into a riveting conclusion that leaves the reader wondering whether or not the human race is suited to this new world. Just like any good science fiction story, Seed makes us question our current practices and the human condition.
