Creators is a prequel to the Contributor series by Nicole Ciacchella. It starts off with a scary realization, and ends with a promise of a great new series. It's a free taste of the world before Contributor, which I've just begin reading after I finished this. I've been spellbound ever since.This novella really makes you think "what if". There are so many threats today: war, terrorists, disease, asteroids, and more. What if the thing we need to fear the most is something that most of us take for granted? What if the thing we need to fear the most is something we must have in order to survive? What if we take a look at a threat that so many people in the world are already facing....lack of food?  This short book really opened my eyes to a future that we may already be creating, eerily enough. There are millions of people on Earth who don't have enough to eat already. Add in the pollution & all the other environmental damage we've been loading our planet down with. Then factor in the truth that we PAY farmers NOT TO FARM. A few horrific years of bad weather later and we could end up, all of us, in the position of the group in the book Creators. I found this story chilling and eye opening.I highly recommend this book, and after you read it download a sample of Contributor. I'm pretty sure, like myself after reading the 6 chapter sample, you'll be hungry for more. No pun intended.
