Warren Keck is an ex-mercenary commando, retired after his career of enforcing order for one of the corporate financial hegemons running the planet.
Keck’s unplanned involvement with four entirely different gene-spliced mermaids is the key to revolutionary change for the transgenics. His fundamental decency, and his love with a special mermaid, show the way.
Decades after teetering on environmental collapse, the world of 2199 adapts to new realities of economy, society, and individual rights. Giant corporations maintain peace, order and production for 11 billion people.
Tremendous advances in bio-engineering lead to the creation of human-animal combinations for entertainment and specialized labor. The manufactured halflings are not legally human, and only as slaves can they participate fully in the socio-economic complex. Those left out are on the margins of starvation.
Against this harsh background,Keck becomes a willing pawn for a mysterious but benign group maneuvering for the human rights of the transgenics.
