Tackling genetic engineering, "Di Filippo's effervescent prose can provoke both hilarity and haunting reflections on our species' possible fate" ( Publishers Weekly). Ribofunk contains eleven masterful and surprising works of imagination. In all of them, biology is the science that drives the engine of life and of story: the Protein Police patrol for renegade gene‑splicers; part‑human sea creatures live in the Great Lakes and clean up toxic spills; a river has become sentient; there is a bodyguard who is part wolverine and a thrill‑seeker climbs a skyscraper and gets stuck, literally.
