An ordinary man undergoes a startling transformation-and fears that all of humanity may be next-in the mindblowing new thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter and Recursion Logan Ramsay can feel his brain...changing.

Because the truth of what's happened to him is more disturbing than he could possibly imagine. His DNA has been rewritten with a genetic-engineering breakthrough beyond anything the world has seen-one that could change our very definitions of humanity.

And by the time …

And by the time it's over, will he-and the people he loves-even recognize him? Upgrade is a stunningly inventive, ferociously plotted science-fiction thriller that explores the limits of our humanity-and asks what's at risk when technology lets us reengineer not just the world around us, but ourselves.

Interesting Read
4 étoiles
Really interesting read. The implications of gene editing and what it could be like with "regulation" was really interesting. Really makes you think. I have to admit I wasn't fully immersed as a reader. And there were some twists that were less shocking and felt more like "huh?". But all in all interesting and good read.

Very good, but not his best work
3 étoiles
What began as a story similar to others that I have read quickly transformed into an interesting read. As usual, Crouch's timing and pacing is great, as is the character development. I would have liked it to have been a little longer.
Overall, I prefer some of Crouch's other works.
