"A brilliant bastard." --Cory Doctorow "Makes sure we understand the biology and neurology behind both vampirism and zombieism, whether we want to or not." --Locus "Watts, undoubtedly, is a genius." ―Medium "Comfort, of course, is the last thing that Watts wants to give his readers." --The New York Review of Science Fiction Which of the following is true? Peter Watts is banned from the U.S. Watts almost died from flesh-eating bacteria. A schizophrenic man living in Watts' backyard almost set his house on fire. Watts was raised by Baptists who really sucked at giving presents. Peter Watts said to read this book. Or else. In over fifty unpredictable essays and revenge fantasies, Hugo Award-winning author, former marine biologist, and angry, sentient tumor, Peter Watts is the savage dystopian optimist that you can't look away from. Even when you probably should.
