Last Updated on Sunday, 07 March 2010 19:39

Scott Sigler can weave a tale—pure and simple. You add plausible science, strong characterization, and most importantly N O N S T O P A C T I O N — you get ANCESTOR. When I take time away from drinking and writing my own nonsense, when I just want to be fraggin' entertained, I read Sigler the FDO*. In fact, I have such a good time I refrain from cussing him for being that good. OK, maybe I cuss him a little.

"Ancestor is a standout bloodbath adventure; a continuous assault on the senses that leaves you breathless from riding each wave of action as it swells into the next." --Summer Brooks - Producer for "Slice of SciFi"and FarPoint Media

"Ancestor starts with a literal bang and builds to a desperate climax that will keep you guessing." --David Wellington, author of Monster Island and 13 Bullets

If you are a reader who appreciates a near-perfect blend of hard science and hard-hitting action, expect both in Scott Sigler's masterful thriller, ANCESTOR --A.M. Stickel, 12.31.06, for BLACK PETALS --

On a remote island in Lake Superior, scientists struggle to solve the problem of xenotransplantation -- using animal tissue to replace failing human organs. Funded by the biotech firm Genada, Dr. Claus Rhumkorrf seeks to recreate the ancestor of all mammals. By getting back to the root of our creation, Rhumkorrf hopes to create an animal with human internal organs. Rhumkorrf discovers the ancestor, but it is not the small, harmless creature he envisions. His genius gives birth to a fast-growing evil that nature eradicated 250 million years ago -- an evil now on the loose, and very, very hungry.
