Scott Sigler is a science fiction genius. Ancestor, in turns, made my heart pound, gave me goosebumps, made me laugh out loud, and made me sick to my stomach for the fate of mankind itself. Dramatic? Perhaps, but completely true. The science & politics in the book are plausible if not "real". The side romance/love story is unnecessary and feels a little forced, but isn't overly annoying. Sigler isn't afraid to kill his characters - so don't get too attached! I loved this book.
