QUESTING BEAST
ILONA ANDREWS
BLURB:
On a world far far
away, where cute things eat computers and the sky is emerald green, a
small team of scientists struggles to save the planet and their own
careers by mixing genetic engineering and Arthurian legend. Too bad
they had forgotten the first rule of planet exploration: Nature always
has the last laugh.
MY REVIEW:
This short sci-fi story, by Ilona Andrews, is a fun read. The Questing Beast, is set on a distant planet, where Sean Kozlov; head of a team of scientists, is awaiting the arrival of the Committee, which will be visiting, to view his team's final data, collected from two years of research.
Unfortunately, for Sean and his team a virus has attacked their computer system and the data could be permanently lost.
This is a wacky story, filled with very strange happenings and imaginative creatures. I wouldn't be surprised if Ilona was experiencing a drug induced high; when she wrote this story, but this being said, it really is a quick, fun read!
