About this book
Eine neue Ära ist angebrochen, das Zeitalter der Sexy Sons, der schönsten und attraktivsten Nachkommen. Nichts wird mehr dem Zufall überlassen, Eltern lassen sich, oder auch ihre Idole, klonen und stellen die genetischen Merkmale ihres Nachwuchses per Katalog zusammen. ED Senft, einer der reichsten Männer Hamburgs, feiert seinen 60. Geburtstag. Alles, was in der Hansestadt Rang und Namen hat, ist in die neu errichtete Elbuferhalle geladen, das Fernsehen überträgt die Veranstaltung live, moderiert vom bekannten Star Paul Abend. Doch die wahre Sensation ist dem Publikum noch nicht bekannt. Anlässlich dieses runden Geburtstags soll die neueste Erfindung der Senft AG präsentiert werden: Globacter, die Zelle für die Welt. In jahrelanger Forschung ist es Senfts Genetikern gelungen, ein Bakterium zu synthetisieren, das Erdöl frisst und als unschädlichen Stoff wieder ausscheidet.: das Ende der Umweltverschmutzungen durch Tankerunfälle und lecke Überlandpipelines ist abzusehen. Doch der Abend verläuft keinesfalls so reibungslos wie geplant: Globacter wird gestohlen, das Schwimmwunder Rebecca Scholz tätlich angegriffen. Ein Alptraum beginnt.

Robert Heinlein
Synopsis courtesy of GoodReads : Utopia has been achieved. For centuries, disease, hunger, poverty and war have been things found only in the history tapes. And applied genetics has given men and women the bodies of athletes and a lifespan of over a century. They should all have been very happy.... But Hamilton Felix is bored. And he is the culmination of a star line; each of his last thirty ancestors chosen for superior genes. Hamilton is, as far as genetics can produce one, the ultimate man. And this ultimate man can see no reason why the human race should survive, and has no intention of continuing the pointless comedy. However, Hamilton's life is about to become less boring. A secret cabal of revolutionaries who find utopia not just boring, but desperately in need of leaders who know just What Needs to be Done, are planning to revolt and put themselves in charge. Knowing of Hamilton's disenchantment with the modern world, they have recruited him to join their Glorious Revolution. Big mistake! The revolutionaries are about to find out that recruiting a superman was definitely not a good idea....
