This one sounds intriguing: Bernard Beckett’s Genesis (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, due in April).
From the publisher:
Set in a post-apocalyptic future that's somehow eerily familiar, Genesis ignited bidding wars in 22 countries and has already received international acclaim. Written while Beckett, who lives in New Zealand, was on a Royal Society genetics research fellowship, it's a riveting story that forces us to think long and hard about what it really means to be human. And it's capped off by a gut-punching, jaw-dropping ending so stunning that it puts The Sixth Sense to shame. Beckett has delivered a fresh update to the perennial "man vs. artificially intelligent machine" scenario...
As no one in SF since the great P.K. Dick has convincingly tackled the question of what it is to be authentically human, I'm really looking forward to reading Beckett's take on this.
SFFMedia review forthcoming.
