I keep thinking of good novels to reccommend in this genre, or in a genre extremely close to it. I must admit that I have something of an obsessesion with post-apocalyptic and dystopian literature.

Anyway, a good author to try is Greg Bear. Blood Music is a.m.a.z.i.n.g. It's all about a viral change to the entire planet, and although it's now 23 years old, it is still simply fantastic. I didn't even realise it was as old as I am until I checked the publication date. I also really enjoyed the Darwin series; Darwin's Radio and Darwin's Children. It is not so much P-A or dystopian, they are somewhat similar, and well worth the read.

I have read the first few chapters of this book, and am quite enjoying it.
