About this Item

Paperback. Symbiote Earth, by A.R.Peterson Horrific childhood adventures leave Michael Sutton committed to exploiting Nature, and Kevin Brough determined to protect it. Michael develops a devil bug that converts forests and meadows into oil slicks-in the name of God. Kevin pits himself against Michael and vows to destroy the devil bug-in the name of Gaia, the Earth Goddess. Enter Liam Feinstein, Scientist and no catspaw to ideology, who, in the end, confronts Almighty God in person, in a peat bog on the moors in England's Peak District. "Symbiote Earth", like "The Blade Runner" and Eco's "The Name of The Rose", is unapologetically and unavoidably replete with technical details, and, unlike "Star Wars", it is based on plausible science that predicts the future, as did Asimov and Clarke. It is an entertaining story, more so if the reader is entertained, as in the tradition of Heinlein, by the collision of ideologies and the clash of ideas; and, where necessary, it is unashamedly sexually explicit. It may also be as reprehensible today as "Tartuffe" was in the time of Moliere. This item is printed on demand.

Michael develops a devil bug that converts forests and meadows into oil slicks—in the name of God. Kevin pits himself against Michael and vows to destroy the devil bug—in the name of Gaia, the Earth Goddess. Enter Liam Feinstein, Scientist and no catspaw to ideology, who, in the end, confronts Almighty God in person, in a peat bog on the moors in England's Peak District. “Symbiote Earth”, like “The Blade Runner” and Eco's “The Name of The Rose”, is unapologetically and unavoidably replete with technical details, and, unlike “Star Wars”, it is based on plausible science that predicts the future, as did Asimov and Clarke.
