On a remote island in Lake Superior, scientists struggle to solve the problem of xenotransplantation -- using animal tissue to replace failing human organs. Funded by the biotech firm Genada, Dr. Claus Rhumkorrf seeks to recreate the ancestor of all mammals.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if cows went rogue and started killing people? You haven't? That is why you are not the author of Ancestor. While a lot of the scientific parts made my brain hurt and I was lucky I could understand it at all, the plot moves along at such a clip that it doesn'...
