I think it's more a case of them being hybrids, rather than full-on animals.So if they tucked in to, I dunno, cat tikka masala for tea, it's only half-cannibalism.

It's a bit like Vurt.There's a drug in that called Fecundity 10 that lets people and animals and dead people breed.

It's probably a bit of it's time, early 90s drugs, raves and early concepts of virtual reality.There's a sequel called Pollen, too.

I could just about cope with Vurt.Pollen went a bit mental.
See also 'Only Forward', but not anything since.

Weirdly, I found Pollen easier. Vurt took a couple of goes.I came straight from hard sf to Vurt and it was a bit of a head trip. I might try reading it again actually.

On the contrary, I'm always up for sheer mindfuckery.Just checked it out on Wikipedia, sounds like my cup of tea. Besides, I need something new to read after Drive and Driven.

Was driven any good?I got about a third of the way in, and didnt read any more for about a month or 2. Now i can't remember what happened, so im inclined to start from scratch. I dont have much time for books / reading.

Driven's ace.Only problem being, it's even shorter than Drive. I consider the two to be just one book, as Driven is pretty much a direct sequel anyway.
I think it's pretty much required to read Drive beforehand, as there's stuff that would otherwise be lost on anyone who hasn't in Driven.
