Stinger Stars is the story of mankind's first contact with another intelligent species—a man-made species that can enable humans to regenerate lost or damaged body parts. Tragically, the intelligent creatures must be repeatedly maimed in order for them to produce the regenerative agent that makes them so useful.
Review by Alan Black:
Should man play with genetics and cloning? What do we do if we make another intelligent species? If they are not naturally occurring, should we set them free? Can we continue to experiment on them even after we discover even rudimentary intelligence? And what defines intelligence anyway?
What if we can improve the lives of human by torturing clones? Can we? Should we? Who would know if we did it anyway?
Okay. Okay. Okay. That is a lot of questions and hard ones, but does it change the answer if a billion dollars is involved? These questions and more still rumble through my brain long after finishing this novel. That is the sign of a good scifi book. It is well written, evenly paced with believable characters in a real life setting. This is definitely worth the read.
