The world always needs a group of beings to be the drudges. And while robots and computers react at lightening speed there is still the need for a “human” element.
So scientests spliced human DNA with that of chimpanzees. Now gen-chimps do the jobs everyone else finds distasteful. And more importantly – they're disposable.
But when they start forming co-alitions and demanding rights – what then?
And why is it taking the world's combined governments so very long to find a solution to the collapsed ozone crisis? Why are they satisfied to maintain the existing overcrowded dome systems?
Rae Stoltenkamp was born in South Africa. She came to England in 1987 to visit family and liked the wet weather so much she stayed. A few years later she went on a writing holiday in Greece where she had an epiphany as she realised she should be writing on a more full time basis. After studying writing at City Lit with the poet Caroline Natzler Rae published her first novel. She has branched out and now writes poetry too.
