By reverse-engineering the genomes of thousands of mammals, Colding's team has dialed back the evolutionary clock to re-create humankind’s common ancestor. The method? Illegal. The result? A computer-engineered living creature, an animal whose organs can be implanted in any person, and with no chance of transplant rejection.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThere's just one problem: these \u003ci\u003eancestors \u003c\/i\u003eare not the docile herd animals that Colding's team envisioned. Instead, Colding’s work has given birth to something big, something \u003ci\u003eevil\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWith these killer creatures on the prowl, Colding and the woman he loves must fight to survive — even as government agents close in to shut the project down, and the deep-pocketed company backing this research proves to have its own cold-blooded agenda.  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAs the creators become the prey in the ultimate battle for survival, Scott Sigler takes readers on the ultimate thrill-ride—and offers a chilling cautionary account of what can happen when hubris, greed, and madness drive scientific experimentation past the brink of reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eSCOTT SIGLER is a popular podcaster and the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of \u003ci\u003eContagious \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eInfected\u003c\/i\u003e.  He lives in San Francisco with his wife and their dog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                    \n                \n            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46552725323937,"sku":"BBSNIJ9780307591012","price":26.59,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9780307591012.jpg?v=1781714101","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/ancestor-paperback-by-scott-sigler","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
