I definitely enjoyed this short story where fate plays a strong hand to ensure that the hubris of the corporate and scientific establishment gets what it deserves - for once.  The main characters - a widow of a scientist/researcher and his two gifted children - are very engaging and likeable.  The children are able to take the lead in many places without their mother having to be hopelessly weak or absent - which bothers me in a lot of young adult themed literature.  The bad guy representing the scientific and corporate establishment is very believable - not evil, just conceited and self-serving.The except for the author's trilogy at the end of the book looks even better and I'm off to buy it now.  I predict that this will be another indie author (at least I think he's indie since Black Moons Publishing has only published his books) that will be snapped up by a major publisher in the near future - and I just love spotting them early.  It's one of the best reasons to own a kindle.
