Vergil Ulam, brilliant, unorthodox, has exceeded every ethical guideline for genetic research to engineer blood cells that think for themselves. When his illegal experiments are discovered, he makes a desperate attempt to save his work - by injecting himself with his own creation.

Moving from the smallest blocks of matter to forces that could transform the universe, Greg Bear's Blood Music is dazzling, apocalyptic, utterly engrossing - a timeless SF classic.
